•  Power off the server and disconnect all power cords for this task.
•  Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static- 
sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with 
an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system.

Procedure
Step 1.  Touch the static-protective package that contains the backplane to any unpainted surface on the 
outside of the server. Then, take the backplane out of the package and place it on a static- 
protective surface.
Step 2.  Connect the cables to the backplane. See “2.5-inch/3.5-inch drive backplane (power)” on page 65
and “2.5-inch/3.5-inch drive backplane (signal)” on page 66.
Step 3.  Put the backplane down into place.

a.  Put the backplane under the front I/O assembly cables, align it with the chassis, and lower it 
into the chassis. Put the backplane into place with it leaning backward slightly so that the three 
pins 
1  on the chassis pass through the three holes  2  in the backplane.
b.  Close the release latches to secure the backplane in place.
