Serial ATA Drive Installation
1. Accessing the inside of the system
The Serial ATA drive is installed internally in the 5014C-MF. To add or remove the
Serial ATA drive, you must fi rst remove the top chassis cover to gain access to the
inside of the system.
First, power down the system (it is also recommended to remove the AC power
cord) then release the retention screws near the handles that secure the unit to
the rack. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click"). Next, remove the screw at the back of the chassis
that secures the top cover to the chassis. Depress the two buttons on the top of
the chassis to release the top cover from the locked position. Push the cover away
from you until it stops. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full
access to the inside of the server.
2. Installing/removing a Serial ATA drive
The hard drive is mounted in a tray at the right rear area of the server. The tray is
quipped with rubber grommets to reduce vibration (Figure 6-3, #1). Remove the
screws that secure the hard drive to the chassis and then lift it of the standoffs, as
shown in Figure 6-4. To remove a hard drive, unscrew the screws that secure it
to the tray (Figure 6-3, #3) and then remove the drive. To add a drive, position it
in the tray with the printed circuit board side facing down and with the holes in the
drive and the holes in the tray aligned. You can install it in either the top or the
bottom half of the tray. Then secure the drive to the tray with four screws (two on
each side), as shown in Figure 6-3.
