2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SCSI/SATA
drives and SCSI/SATA 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 DVD-
ROM and fl oppy drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover. The
SAS/SATA disk drives can be installed and removed from the front of the chassis
without removing the top chassis cover.
2. DVD-ROM and fl oppy disk drives
A slim DVD-ROM and fl oppy drive should be preinstalled in your server. Refer
to Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a DVD-ROM and/or fl oppy disk drive to the
system.
3. Check the SAS/SATA disk drives
Depending upon your system's confi guration, your system may have one or
more drives already installed. If you need to install SAS/SATA drives, please
refer to Chapter 6.
4. Check the airfl ow
Airfl ow is provided by fi ve sets of 4-cm fans (each set of fans consists of two fans
that are mounted back to back). The system component layout was carefully
designed to direct suffi cient cooling airfl ow 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 airfl ow 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 cord(s) from the power supply module(s) into a high-quality power strip
that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is recommended
that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) source.
