Accessing the Drive Bays
SATA Drives: Because of their hotswap capability, you do not need to access the
inside of the chassis or power down the system to install or replace the SATA drives.
Proceed to the next section for instructions.
DVD-ROM Drive: For installing/removing a DVD-ROM drive, you will need to gain
access to the inside of the 2026T-6RFT+/6RF+ by removing the top cover of the
chassis. Proceed to the "DVD-ROM Drive Installation" section later in this chapter
for instructions.
Note:
Only a "slim" DVD-ROM drive will fi t into the 2026T-6RFT+/6RF+.
Hard Drive Installation
The hard drives are mounted in drive carriers to simplify their installation and
removal from the chassis. System power may remain on when removing carriers
with drives installed. These carriers also help promote proper air
fl ow for the drive
bays. For this reason, even empty carriers without drives installed must remain in
the chassis.
Mounting a Hard Drive in a Drive Carrier
1. Insert a drive into the carrier with the printed circuit board side facing down so
that the mounting holes align with those in the carrier.
2. Secure the drive to the carrier with four screws, as shown in Figure 6-6.
Removing a Hard Drive Carrier
1. To remove a carrier, push the release button located on the drive carrier.
2. Swing the colored handle fully out and use it to pull the unit straight out (see
Figure 6-7).
Note:
Your operating system must have RAID support to enable the hot-plug ca-
pability of the hard drives.
Warning:
Enterprise level hard disk drives are recommended for use in Supermicro
