Removal and Replacement Procedures
Guidelines for Installing SCSI Hard Drives
Each SCSI hard drive installed in the server must be configured with a unique SCSI ID
number. Unique identification allows the system to search for the lowest numbered drive to
use as a bootable partition. By default, the jumpers on SCSI hard drives are set to ID 0 and
may need to be reset when the drive is installed as an optional or replacement drive in the
server.
CAUTION: Installing unsupported hard drives may damage the system by consuming power
and generating heat in excess of the server’s operating tolerance. This condition may result in
a loss of system and/or data integrity.
NOTE: Refer to the documentation shipped with the hard drive to determine how to set the jumpers on
the SCSI hard drives.
Hard Drive Identification Numbers
The servers include two 1-inch hard drive trays. Hard drives installed in the server are labeled
as Device 0 and Device 1 in the following illustration for clarification.
IMPORTANT: Always populate hard drive bays starting with the lowest ATA device number or
recommended SCSI ID number.
