Installing a drive cage
To install a drive cage, complete the following steps.
1. If the server is a 2.5-inch drive model, make sure that the 2.5-inch backplane
is removed from the drive cage. (See “Removing the SAS backplane (2.5-inch
drives)” on page 53 for instructions.)
2. Line up the drive cage with the drive bays on the front of the server.
3. Push the drive cage into the server until it stops.
4. Align the holes in the top of the drive cage with the holes in the top of the
chassis; then, insert the screws that secure the drive cage to the chassis.
5. If the server is a 2.5-inch drive model, install the SAS backplane. (See
“Installing the SAS backplane (2.5-inch drives)” on page 53 for instructions.)
6. Install the cover (see “Installing the cover” on page 29).
7. Install the hard disk drives.
8. Install the server in the rack.
9. Connect the cables and power cords.
10. Turn on all attached devices and the server.
Removing and replacing FRUs
FRUs must be installed only by trained service technicians.

Microprocessor
The following notes describe the type of microprocessor that the server supports
and other information that you must consider when you install a microprocessor:
v The server supports one Intel land grid array (LGA) 775-land dual-core
microprocessor. The type, speed, and L2 cache of the microprocessor depends
on the server model.
v Read the documentation that comes with the microprocessor to determine
whether you have to update the BIOS code. To download the most current level
of BIOS code, go to http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/support/xseries/
index.html.
v The microprocessor uses an integrated voltage regulator on the system board.
