Mass Storage Devices

Table 3-1 lists the number and types of mass storage devices that may be added to the hp server.

* The secondary IDE (IDE-2) cable is connected to the factory-installed CD-ROM drive. The primary IDE connector (IDE-1) is available
on the SCSI model.
** A 50-to-68-pin SCSI adapter is provided with the HP backup tape drive.

Tools Required

Use an anti-static service kit (3M 8501/8502/8503 or equivalent). This kit includes a static-dissipating work
surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist strap.

Installing a Second Hard Disk Drive (Drive Cage Mounted)

The first hard disk drive (IDE or SCSI) is always mounted in the top (shelf 5) of the hard disk drive cage. The
second hard disk drive should be mounted just below it (shelf 6).

1. If the server is already installed and operating, power down the server.

Refer to

Chapter 1‚ Controls and Indicators

2. Disconnect the power cables and any external cables connected to the server.

If necessary, label each one to expedite re-assembly.

3. Remove the side cover from the server.

Refer to

“Opening and Closing the hp server”

earlier in this chapter.

4. Press and release the retaining clips at the sides of the drive cage. See
