Chapter 5: Chassis Setup and Maintenance
The hard drives are mounted in drive carriers to simplify their installation and
removal from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper airflow for the
drive bays.
Only enterprise level hard drives are recommended for use in the SC827HD chassis.
Caution
: Except for short periods of time while swapping hard drives, do not operate
the server with the hard drives bays empty.
Installing a Hard Drive into the Hard Drive Carrier
1. Remove the screws which secure the dummy drive into the carrier.
2. Remove the drive from the tray.
3. Install a new drive into the tray with the printed circuit board side facing down
so that the mounting holes in the drive align with those in the carrier.
4. Secure the hard drive by tightening all six (6) screws.
5. Use the open handle to replace the drive carrier into the chassis.
6. Close the drive carrier handle to lock the hard drive carrier into the chassis
drive bay.
