Fix Hard Disk Drives

Installing a Fixed Hard Disk Drive

Up to six SATA or 4 SCSI fixed hard drives can be installed in the fixed hard drive cage. Power

requirements for each individual hard drive may limit the maximum number of drives that can be

integrated into the server chassis.

Caution

Fixed drives are NOT hot swappable. Before removing or

replacing the drive, you must first take the server out of service,

turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system, turn off

the system by pressing the power button, and unplug the AC

power cord from the system or wall outlet.

Warning

Drive bay slots 1, 3, and 5 MUST be populated first. Failure to

do so could result in thermal issues within the chassis.
