Use this information to install the hard disk drive cage
and backplane assembly.
Before you begin
Before you install the hard disk drive cage and backplane
assembly, 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.
Procedure
To install the hard disk drive cage and backplane assembly,
complete the following steps.
-
Remove the cover (see Removing the compute node cover).
-
Position the assembly in the drive bay at an angle and
rotate the assembly into the connector on the system board.
-
Press the assembly firmly into the system board connector.
-
Insert the hot-swap hard disk drives and hard disk drive
bay fillers (see Installing a hot-swap hard disk drive).
What to do next
After you install the hard disk drive cage and backplane
assembly, 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).
