Installing a SCSI hard drive

Use this procedure to add or replace hard drives in the hot-swap bay. Your server
supports up to eight 1-inch high 3.5-inch SCA SCSI hard drives. You can
purchase additional SCSI drives through your Gateway sales representative.

To install a hard drive:

1

Unlock the front cover’s lock, then swing the hot-swap bay door open.

Important

The numbers on the left side of the hot-swap bay identify
the SCSI ID of each drive. Install the topmost drives first.

Gateway tests and verifies the operation and compatibility
of the drives it sells. Especially in a hot-swap or
mission-critical environment, additional or replacement
drives must conform to Gateway standards.
