Drive options

Optical drives

The standard configuration for this server is one DVD drive (in the right drive bay) and one drive blank (in
the left drive bay). An optional DVD-ROM or diskette drive may be installed in the left drive bay.

A diskette drive cannot be installed in the right drive bay.

CAUTION: Always populate each media bay with either a device or a blank. Proper airflow can only be

maintained when the bays are populated. Unpopulated drive bays can lead to improper cooling and
thermal damage.

To install an optional drive:

1.

Power down the server (on page

23

).

2.

Use a T-15 Torx screwdriver to eject the drive blank, and pull the drive blank out of the chassis.

3.

Install the optional drive into the server.
