Removable Media Devices
Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 servers support installation of optional
internal non-hot-plug SCSI hard drives, and other storage devices.
Installing removable media devices consists of two procedures:
■ Removing bezel blanks
■ Installing the media device
NOTE: This chapter includes general procedures for installing non-hot-plug SCSI hard
drives, half-height tape drives, and full-height tape drives. Refer to your option kit
documentation for specific drive instructions or guidelines.
IMPORTANT: Compaq SCSI non-hot-plug cables are terminated. Remove all terminating
jumpers from third-party SCSI devices before installing them in your Compaq
ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 server.
Removing Bezel Blanks
Before installing an optional internal media device in the removable media
cage, you must remove a bezel blank.
CAUTION: Always populate each media bay with either a drive or blank. Proper
airflow can only be maintained when the bays are populated. Unpopulated drive
bays can lead to improper cooling and thermal damage.
NOTE: It is recommended that you move the CD-ROM drive out of the media cabling area
for ease of installation. It is not necessary to disconnect and remove the CD-ROM drive
from the server entirely.
To remove a bezel blank:
1. Power down the server. See “Powering Down the Server” in this
chapter.
2. Remove the access panel. See “Removing the Access Panel” in this
chapter.
