2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SCSI drives
and SCA backplane have been properly installed and all connections have been
made.
1. Accessing the drive bays:
All drives are accessable from the front of the server. For servicing the
CD-ROM and floppy drives, you will need to remove the top chassis
cover. The SCSI disk drives can be installed and removed from the front
of the chassis without removing the top chassis cover.
2. CD-ROM and floppy disk drives:
A slim CD-ROM and a floppy drive should be preinstalled in your server. Refer
to Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a CD-ROM and/or floppy disk drive to the
system.
3. Check the SCSI disk drives:
Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have one or
more drives already installed. If you need to install SCSI drives, please refer
to Chapter 6.
4. Check the airflow:
Airflow is provided by four 9-cm center chassis cooling fans and two 8-cm rear
chassis exhaust fans. An air shroud is also included in the system to maxi-
mize airflow. The system component layout was carefully designed to direct
sufficient cooling airflow to the components that generate the most heat. Note
that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do
not block the airflow generated by the fans.
5. Supplying power to the system:
The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug
the power cords from the power supply units into a high-quality power strip
that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is recom-
mended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
