Use this information to install the hard disk drive backplane.
Before you install the hard disk drive backplane, complete
the following steps:
- Read Safety and Installation guidelines.
- If the compute node is installed in an Flex System chassis, remove it (see Removing a compute node from a chassis for instructions).
- Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the compute node with the bezel pointing toward you.
To install the hard disk drive backplane, complete the
following steps.
- Remove the cover (see Removing the compute node cover).
- Align the backplane with the hard disk drive cage and the connector on the system board and press the backplane into position until it is fully seated in the connector.
- Slide the hard disk drive and hard disk drive bay filler into the bay until it is firmly seated in the connector.
- Lock the hard disk drive into place by closing the release lever.
After you install the hard disk drive backplane, complete
the following steps:
- Install the cover onto the compute node (see Installing the compute node cover for instructions).
- Install the compute node into the chassis (see Installing a compute node in a chassis for instructions).
