Removal and replacement procedures 43
7.
Disconnect and remove the power and SAS cables, if applicable.
To replace the SAS-SATA hard drive cage, perform the following procedures:
CAUTION: The power transfer board is only installed in the HP ProLiant DL585 Server. Installing the power
transfer board in the HP ProLiant DL580 Generation 3 Server might damage the board and server
components.
NOTE: You must provide a SAS controller before proceeding with the SAS hard drive cage installation.
1. Power down the server (on page 16).
2. Remove all hard drives ("Removing a hot-plug SCSI hard drive" on page 40, "Removing a hot-plug
SAS hard drive" on page 41) and hard drive blanks ("Removing a hard drive blank" on page 40).
3. Extend the server from the rack ("Extending the server from the rack" on page 15).
4. Remove the access panel ("Removing the access panel" on page 17).
5. Install the SAS controller. Refer to the directions provided with the controller for installation
instructions.
6. Route and connect the power cable to the power cable connector on the SCSI backplane.
CAUTION: When routing cables, always be sure that the cables are not in a position where they can be
pinched or crimped.
