2. Lift the release pin and slide the backplane toward the back of the chassis until firmly seated.
3. Release the release pin to lock the backplane to the chassis.
4. Reconnect all the cables to the backplane.
Next steps
1. Install both the hard drives in their original location.
2. Follow the procedure listed in After working inside your system.
Tape backup unit (optional)
The tape backup unit is supported only on 2.5 inch hard-drive systems of PowerEdge R730.
Removing the tape backup unit
Prerequisites
1. Ensure that you read the Safety instructions.
2. Follow the procedure listed in Before working inside your system.
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only
perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as
directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is
not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions
that came with the product.
Steps
1. Disconnect the power and data cables from the back of the tape backup unit.
Note the routing of the power and data cables inside the chassis as you remove them from the
system board and the tape backup unit. You must route these cables properly when you replace
them to prevent them from being pinched or crimped.
2. To remove the tape backup unit, press the release tab and slide the tape backup unit out of the tape
backup unit slot.
NOTE: If the tape backup unit is being permanently removed, install a tape backup unit blank by
sliding it into the slot until it snaps into place.
NOTE: The procedure to install and remove the tape backup unit blank is similar to that of the
tape backup unit.
NOTE: Tape backup unit blank must be installed in empty tape backup unit slot to maintain FCC
certification of the system. The blank also keeps dust and dirt out of the system and aid in
proper cooling and airflow inside the system.
