Media bay options

Use the media bay to install one of these options:

• 7-mm slim-type SATA SSD

• 9.5 mm slim-type SATA optical drive

Installing an SSD

The media bay supports a 7-mm slim-type SATA solid-state drive option. SSDs have no moving parts. Information is

stored in microchips. Traditional hard disk drives use a mechanical arm with a read/write head to move around and read

information from the right location on a rotating storage platters. This lack of rotating media in SSDs:

• Greatly reduces the SSD’s power consumption

• Enable SSDs to tolerate significantly higher operating shock and vibration levels

SSDs are suitable for server workloads with highly random data under a variety of write-workload applications.

Procedure

2. Disconnect the power cord from the AC source, and then from the server.

3. Disconnect all peripheral cables from the server.
