Your system features two internal hard-drive bays that accommodate up to two SCSI hard drives. The system's two peripheral bays can accommodate an

optional optical drive and a optional diskette drive. All drives connect to the system board through the SCSI backplane board.

Installing SCSI Hard Drives



Before You Begin

SCSI hard drives are supplied in special drive carriers that fit in the hard-drive bays.

You may need to use different programs than those provided with the operating system to partition and format SCSI hard drives.

When you format a high-capacity SCSI hard drive, allow enough time for the formatting to be completed. Long format times for these drives are normal. A 9-GB

hard drive, for example, can take up to 2.5 hours to format.



Installing a SCSI Hard Drive



1. If the system does not have a optional RAID controller card or optional riser card with ROMB (when available), shut down the system.



2. Remove the front bezel, if attached. See "Opening the System" in "Troubleshooting Your System."



3. Open the hard-drive handle. See Figure7-1.

Figure 7-1. Installing a SCSI Hard Drive

NOTICE: Before you attempt to remove or install a drive while the system is running, see the documentation for the optional RAID controller card or

optional ROMB (when available) to ensure that the host adapter is configured correctly to support hot-pluggable drive removal and insertion.

NOTE: It is recommended that you use only drives that have been tested and approved for use with the SCSI backplane board.

NOTICE: Do not turn off or reboot your system while the drive is being formatted. Doing so can cause a drive failure.

NOTICE: Hot-plug drive installation is not supported for systems without an optional RAID controller card or optional ROMB (when available).
