Hard Drive Overview

The server contains two drive bays for either ATA or SCSI hard drives. There are two ATA
channels and the server ships standard with two 1-inch drive trays and is preconfigured for
two 1-inch ATA hard drives. The following sections provide general guidelines and
installation procedures for installing or upgrading hard drives.

Guidelines for Installing ATA Hard Drives

When installing ATA hard drives in the server, observe the following general guidelines:
•
Populate hard drive bays starting with the lowest ATA device number. Device 0 serves as
the primary boot drive.
•
Set the jumpers on both ATA drives to Cable-Select mode.
•
Do not add more than two ATA drives per channel.
IMPORTANT: ATA hard drives must be configured to the Cable-Select mode.
NOTE: ATA drives are set to Cable-Select mode by default.
NOTE: Refer to the documentation shipped with the hard drive to determine how to set the jumpers on
the ATA hard drives to Cable-Select mode, if they are not already set in Cable-Select mode.
