Installing and Removing a Fixed Hard Drive

You can install up to six fixed hard drives in the fixed hard drive cage that ships with the

Intel

Server Chassis SC5650. Power requirements for each individual hard drive may

limit the maximum number of drives that can be integrated into the server chassis.

Note: The Intel

Server Chassis SC5650 does not support all hard drives. See “Additional

Information and Software” for a web link to a list of supported hard drives.

Installing a Fixed Hard Drive

Caution: Fixed drives are NOT hot-swappable. Before removing or replacing the drive, you must

first take the server out of service, turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system,

turn off the system by pressing the power button, and unplug the AC power cord from the

system or wall outlet.

Warning: You MUST populate drive bay slots 1, 3, and 5 first. Failure to do so could result in

thermal issues within the chassis.

Note: SAS/SATA drives illustrated.
