Installing options 51
• Bay C is for a 3.5-inch slim-high removable-media drive
or a SCSI hard disk drive.
Note: The electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and
cooling of the server are both protected by having
bays A through D covered or occupied. When you
install a drive, save the filler panel from the bay, in
case you later remove the drive and do not replace it
with another.
Preinstallation steps (all bays)
Before you install drives in the server, verify that you have all
the cables and any other equipment specified in the docu-
mentation that comes with the drive. You might also need to
perform certain preinstallation activities. Some of the steps
are required only during the initial installation of an option.
1. Read “Safety information” on page 155, “Handling elec-
trostatic discharge-sensitive devices” on page 158, and
the documentation that comes with the drive.
2. Choose the bay in which you want to install the drive.
3. Check the instructions that come with the drive to see if
you need to set any switches or jumpers on the drive.
Be sure to set the SCSI ID on a SCSI device.
