Installing a Component in the 5.25" Drive Bay
1. Mounting the component in the drive carrier
A component such as an IDE hard drive or an additional SCSI drive that can fi t into
a standard IDE drive bay can be mounted in the 5.25" drive bay. The component
should also be mounted in a drive carrier to simplify its installation and removal
from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper airfl ow. For this reason,
even empty carriers without a component installed must remain in the chassis. To
add a component such as those noted above, install a drive into the carrier with
the printed circuit board side toward the carrier so that the mounting holes align
with those in the carrier. Secure the drive to the carrier with the four screws.
IDE Drive Installation (5025M-i only)
1. Mounting an IDE drive in the drive carrier
Like SCSI drives, IDE drives are also mounted in drive carriers to simplify their
installation and removal from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper
airfl ow. For this reason, even empty carriers without IDE drives installed must
remain in the chassis. To add a new IDE drive, install a drive into the carrier with
the printed circuit board side toward the carrier so that the mounting holes align
with those in the carrier. Secure the drive to the carrier with the four screws.
2. Installing/Removing IDE drives
The two IDE drive bays located in the front of the chassis will each accommodate
up to three IDE drives. IDE drives are not hot-swappable, meaning system power
must be turned off before installing and/or removing them. To install or remove a
drive, fi rst power down the system and then remove the top cover of the chassis.
Unscrew the retention screw at the top center of the drive, then push the drive
carrier out from the back until you can grasp and pull it out through the front of the
chassis. Reverse this procedure when installing a drive carrier, making sure you
screw in the retention screw. Replace the top cover when fi nished.
