Installing drives

Your server’s basic configuration includes one CD or DVD drive and one
3.5-inch diskette drive. Your server also has two additional 5.25-inch drive bays.

Your server can have up to four SCSI hard drives in the hot-swap bay behind
the front access door.

As you prepare to install drives, remember:

Do not use the top 5.25-inch drive bay for drives which have electronic
components exposed on the top. Drive mounting rails at the top of the
bay may damage any exposed electronic components.

Before you install a drive, see the drive’s documentation for information
on configuring the drive, setting drive jumpers, and attaching cables.

IDE hard drives can be configured as single, master, slave, or cable-select.
IDE CD or DVD drives can be configured as master, slave, or cable-select.
