3. Install the media drive into the server.
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.
IMPORTANT: By default, the DVD drive is installed in the lower drive bay. To boot from a DVD
or CD-RW drive in the upper drive bay or to boot from a diskette drive in the lower bay,
change the boot device selector switch to FLP BOT ("
Boot device selector switch " on page 16 ).
NOTE: If two DVD or CD-RW drives are installed in the server, the server will first attempt to
boot from the primary drive (" Boot device selector switch " on page 16 ). The boot device
selector switch setting determines which drive is the primary drive.
4. Power up the server (on page 24 ).
