Preparing to Install Options
Preparing a Rack Model
Before you begin
Read the documentation that comes with the rack enclosure for additional
safety and operating information.
The hard disk drives in Netfinity 5000 server are hot-swappable. If you are
installing only a hard disk drive (bays 1 through 5), go directly to “Installing or
Removing Internal Drives” on page 56. Otherwise, continue with the following
steps.
1. If you have a modem or fax machine attached to the server, disconnect the
telephone line from the wall outlet and the server.
Note: If you are in the United Kingdom, you must perform this step before
disconnecting the power cord.

CAUTION:
The Power-on switch on the front of the server does not turn off the
electrical current supplied to the server. The server also might
have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current
from the server, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from
the power source.
2. Unplug all power cords (cables) from electrical outlets, and then disconnect all
other cables from the back of the server.
3. Remove the screws from the brackets on either side of the server, and set
them aside.
4. Pull the rack model out of the rack enclosure until both slide rails lock.
Note: When the server is in the locked position, you can easily reach the
cables on the back of the server.
