Internal drives
This section describes the removal and installation of internal drives.
The following notes describe the types of drives that the computer supports and
other information that you must consider when replacing internal drives.
v
You can install removable-media drives in bays 1, 2, and 3 only.
v You can install a 3.5-in. slim-high or 5.25-in. half-high removable-media drive,
such as a tape backup drive, in bay 2.
v
You can install a SCSI diskette drive or a 3.5-in slim-high SCSI hard disk drive in
bay 3. You cannot install an IDE drive in bay 3.
v To install a 3.5-in. drive in a 5.25-in. bay, you must use the 5.25-in. conversion
kit.
v
The IntelliStation A Pro computer supports only one diskette drive: either a
diskette drive in bay 3 or a USB drive connected to the USB connector on the
front of the computer.
v
Two Serial ATA hard disk drive connectors are on the system board.
v When SCSI drives are installed, set the drive jumpers either to disable auto-start
or to delay startup, to prevent overtaxing the system power supply by all drives
trying to spin up at once.
v
If you have SCSI hard disk drives and SATA hard disk drives in the same
computer, note the following HostRAID considerations for hard disk drives:
– You can enable HostRAID on only one subsystem (SCSI or SATA).
– If HostRAID is enabled on a subsystem, you can install boot hard disk drives
on that subsystem only.
If you fail to observe these restrictions, the computer will usually disable the
BIOS for the last subsystem that is loaded, which typically is SCSI.
For more information about HostRAID, see the User’s Guide on the IBM
IntelliStation Documentation CD.
