Installing SCSI Hard Drives
The following procedure describes how to install SCSI hard drives into the
empty hard drive bay of a SCSI-model ProLiant DL320 server.
1. Prepare your SCSI hard drives by performing the following steps:
a. Review “Guidelines for SCSI Hard Drives” earlier in this chapter to
ensure proper jumper settings and hard drive configuration.
b. Refer to the documentation that ships with your hard drive option kit
to ensure that only one of your SCSI hard drives is set to SCSI ID 0.
NOTE: Steps 2 through 4 apply only to servers that have already been mounted in a rack.
2. Back up any data residing on any hard drives currently configured to
your server.
3. Power down the server. See “Powering Down the Server” earlier in this
chapter.
4. Remove the server from the rack. See “Removing the Server from the
Rack” in Chapter 4, “Installing the Server.”
NOTE: If you install the rack management solution option (ball-bearing slide rails and a
cable management system), you can perform many hardware procedures without
removing the server from the rack. For more information, see “Other Options” earlier in
this chapter.
5. Remove the access panel. See “Removing the Access Panel” earlier in
this chapter.
6. Identify the tray into which you intend to install your SCSI hard drive.
See “Hard Drive Identification Numbers” earlier in this chapter.
