DVD-ROM and Floppy Drive Installation
The top cover of the chassis must be opened to gain full access to the
DVD-ROM and floppy drive bays. The 6014P-8/6014P-8R/6014P-82R/6014P-
82 accomodates only slim DVD-ROM and floppy drives. Side mounting
brackets are needed to mount a slim DVD-ROM drive in the server.
You must power down the system before installing or removing a floppy or
DVD-ROM drive. First, release the retention screws that secure the server
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, depress the two
buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover and at the same
time, 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.
With the chassis cover removed, unplug the power and data cables from
the drive you want to remove. Then locate the locking tab at the rear of the
drive. It will be on the left side of the drive when viewed from the front of
the chassis. Pull the tab away from the drive and push the drive unit out
the front of the chassis. Add a new drive by following this procedure in
reverse order. You may hear a faint *click* of the locking tab when the
drive is fully inserted. Remember to reconnect the data and power cables
to the drive before replacing the chassis cover and restoring power to the
system. Please be aware of the following:
• The floppy disk drive cable has seven twisted wires.
• A color mark on a cable typically designates the location of pin 1.
