Slimline Optical Drive Carrier
You can use a slimline optical drive carrier with an optional optical drive. One slimline
carrier is included with your server system; you must purchase the optical drive
separately.
You can only insert or remove the slimline optical drive carrier when the system power is
turned off. Drives in the optical drive carrier are NOT hot-swappable. For installation
instructions on installing an optical drive, see “Installing or Removing a Slimline Optical
Drive” on page -41.
To use one of the drives provided by Intel, use the following order codes:
• SATA Slimline DVD Drive: AXXSATADVDROM
• SATA Slimline DVD Rewriteable Drive: AXXSATADVDRWROM
Rack-Mounted Systems
Your Intel
®
Server System SR1630BC can be mounted into a rack. Intel provides three
options to mount this server into a rack. When installing the chassis into a rack, Intel
recommends you install systems from the bottom of the rack to the top. In other words,
install the first system in the rack into the bottom position of the rack, the second system
in the second position from the bottom, and so on. Instructions for installing your chassis
into a rack are included in the rail kit.
