Hardware Setup
Preparing the Hardware Installation
To access some components and perform certain service
procedures, you must perform the following procedures
first.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
detach the power cord to remove power from the
server. The Power On/Standby button (if there is
one) does not completely shut off system power.
Portions of the power supply and some internal
circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
Power off the MR-301 and remove the power cord 1.
from the system.
Unscrew the 2 threaded screws from the rear side and 2.
1 screw from each of the lateral side of the MR-301
system.
Installing the Hard Disk
The system can accommodate one 2.5” Serial-ATA disks.
Follow these steps to install a hard disk into the MR-301:
Place hard disk on the hard disk tray and align the holes 1.
of the hard disk with the mounting holes of the tray.
Screw 4 mounting screws through the hard disk on 2.
side the hard disk tray.
Connect the Serial-ATA power and drive cables to the 3.
hard disk’s power and drive connectors respectively.
Plug the Serial-ATA data cable to the Serial-ATA 4.
Connector on the main board.
Plug the Serial-ATA power cable to the Serial-ATA 5.
Power Connector on the main board.
Put the hard disk tray with the installed hard disk back 6.
and fasten it to the system with the mounting screws.
Slide the cover backwards and lift to open the cover.3.
