Checking the Drive Bay Setup

Next, you should check to make sure the drives have been properly installed and all essential connections
have been made.

Checking the Drives

1. For servicing the Serial ATA and DVD-ROM drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover. The
Serial ATA disk drive is located at the front left side of the chassis.

2. Refer to Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a DVD-ROM drive to the system.

3. Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have a Serial ATA hard drive already
installed. If you need to install a Serial ATA hard drive, please refer to the appropriate section in Chapter 6.

Checking the Airflow

1. Airflow is provided by one 10-cm input fan. The system component layout was carefully designed to
promote sufficient airflow through the small 1U rackmount space.

2. Note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do not block the airflow
generated by the fan.

Providing Power

1. The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug the power cord from the power
supply unit into a high-quality power strip that of- fers protection from electrical noise and power surges.

2. It is recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
