Opening the server
Installing a hard drive
The server has four HDD bays that support 3.5-inch-hot-plug or
non-hot-plug SATA and SAS drives. The type and capacity of drives
vary based on the server model.
IMPORTANT: If you are going to switch from a SATA to
a SAS HDD configuration, install the SAS controller
board first. It is recommended that this controller board
be installed in the full-height/full-length PCI-E Gen2 x16
riser board. After installing the controller board, remove
the HDD SATA cables and install the SAS HDD and
LED cables.
Hot-plug hard drive installation
1. Slide the hard drive assembly into the drive bay until it stops.
2. Press the hard drive carrier latch inward until it clicks.
Non-hot-plug hard drive installation

2. Remove the HDD carrier from the bay you want to install the
new drive into.
3. Install the new hard drive in its carrier.
4. Install the new hard drive into the drive bay.
