CD-ROM/DVD Drive Installation Instructions First Edition (March 2005)

Part Number 389881-001

Pre-installation Procedures

1. Turn off the server and all the peripherals connected to it.

2. Unplug all cables from the power outlets to avoid exposure to high energy levels that may cause burns when parts are short-circuited by metal objects such as tools or jewelry.

If necessary, label each one to expedite reassembly.

3. Disconnect telecommunication cables to avoid exposure to shock hazard from ringing voltages.

Installing an Optional CD-ROM or DVD Drive

1. Perform the pre-installation procedures described in the previous section.

2. Detach the top cover from the chassis: a. Loosen the captive thumbscrew on the rear panel. b. Slide the cover approximately 1.25 cm (0.5 in) toward the

rear of the unit, then lift the cover to detach it from the chassis.

Place the top cover in a safe place for reinstallation later.

5. Install the new optical drive in the carrier: a. Align the optical drive in the carrier. b. Secure the drive with two mounting screws.

3. Prepare the optical media device bay for installation: a. Pull up the optical media device bay release lever, then

push the drive carrier partially out through the front of the

chassis. b. Pull the drive carrier out of the chassis. c. Remove the screw securing the drive carrier bezel. d. Detach the drive carrier bezel.

Store the drive carrier bezel (with its screw) for

reassembly later.

CAUTION: Do not discard the drive carrier bezel. If the optical

drive is removed in the future, this bezel must be reinstalled in

the chassis for the proper cooling of the system.

6. Install the new optical drive into the chassis: a. Slide the drive assembly into the chassis until the optical

media device bay release lever snaps into place.

CAUTION: Route the optical drive cables neatly. If necessary, secure them using the pre-installed cable clips located on the chassis base. The cables should be routed in a position where they will not be pinched or crimped by the top cover, nor should they hamper proper airflow inside the chassis.

b. Route the optical drive’s power cables through the cable

management opening of the chassis’ partition wall.

c. Connect the IDE and power cables to their corresponding

connectors on the optical drive’s backplane board.

4. Remove the new optical drive from its protective packaging. The optical drive option kits include mounting screws for

drive installation.

7. Perform the post-installation procedures described in the next section.

Post-installation Procedures

1. Be sure all components are installed according to the described step-by-step instructions.

2. Check to make sure you have not left loose tools or parts inside the server.

3. Reinstall any expansion board(s), peripheral(s), board cover(s), and system cable(s) that have previously been removed.

4. Reinstall the top cover.

5. Connect all external cables and the AC power cord to the system.

6. Press the power button

on the front panel to turn on the

server.
