Installing Components in the 5.25" Drive Bay
The AS -4023S-TRT has one 5.25" drive bay into which a DVD-ROM drive may be installed.
1. Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1 and remove the
side cover as described in Section 3.2.
2.
With the cover off, remove the two or four screws that secure the drive carrier to the
chassis (one side only) then push the entire empty drive carrier out from the back.
Adding a DVD-ROM Drive
1. Remove the guide plates (one on each side) from the empty drive carrier and screw
them into both sides of the DVD-ROM drive using the holes provided.
2. Slide the DVD-ROM into the bay and secure it to the chassis with the drive carrier
screws you first removed.
3. Attach the power and data cables to the drive.
4. Replace the top/left chassis cover before restoring power to the system.
Mobile Rack (Optional Storage Module)
The chassis accepts an optional Supermicro mobile rack (pn CSE-M28SABP) in place of two
5.25" bays. This adds eight hot-swap 2.5" SAS or SATA drives. An optional expansion card
and cables are also required.
