Installing internal drives
If you add different types of drives, your system can read multiple types of media and
store more data. Several types of drives are available, such as:
• Diskette
• Hard disk
• CD-ROM
• DVD-ROM
• Tape
Note: The server supports external tape drives; however, the server does not
support internal tape drives.
Your server contains hardware that enables you to replace a failed hard disk drive
without turning off the server. Therefore, you have the advantage of continuing to
operate your system while a hard disk drive is removed or installed. These drives are
known as hot-swap drives.
Each hot-swap drive has two indicator lights (see “Start your server” on page 6). If
the amber hard-disk status light for a drive is lit continuously, that individual drive is
faulty and requires replacement. When the hard-disk status light indicates a drive
fault, you can replace a hot-swap drive without turning off the server.
Each hot-swap drive that you plan to install must be mounted in a hot-swap-drive
tray. The drive must have a single connector attachment (SCA) connector. Hot-swap-
drive trays come with hot-swap drives.
Internal drive bays
Internal drives are installed in bays.
• Your server comes with one integrated drive electronics (IDE) CD-ROM drive
and one 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB diskette drive.
• The CD-ROM drive bay (bottom left front) supports 5.25-inch, half-high,
removable-media drives. However, you cannot install additional removable-
media drives in the server.
• You cannot install hot-swap drives in the left front bays. You can install hot-
swap hard disk drives only in the hot-swap hard drive bays on the right front
side of the server.
