Installing Internal Drives

If you add different types of drives, your system can read multiple types of media

and store more data. Several types of drives are available , such as:

 Diskette

 Disk drive

 CD-ROM

 Tape

Note: If you are installing a CD-ROM drive, refer to xiii before installing the drive.

Internal drives are installed in

bays

. A diskette drive is preinstalled in bay A2 and a

CD-ROM drive is preinstalled in bay A1 in all models. You can install a media drive

in bay B1 or B2.

The base system has a hot-swap backplane installed in bank C. You can install six

hot-swappable disk drives into the bays in bank C. You can order additional

hot-swap backplanes for banks D and E. Banks C, D, and E each contain six bays.

You can install up to six disk drives in bank C, bank D, or bank E.

You can order an optional feature that lets you install non hot-swappable disk drives

into bays B1 and B2.

Note: The bank letter-designations are located on both vertical rails on the front of

the system. The bay-slot numbers are located on the top of bank C and the

bottom of bank E.
