Use this information to install the hard disk drive cage.
Before you install the hard disk drive cage, complete the
following steps:
- Read Safety and Installation guidelines.
- If the compute node is installed in a 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 cage, complete the following
steps.
-
Remove the cover (see Removing the compute node cover).
-
Position the cage in the compute node front panel at an
angle and rotate the cage into position on the system board.
-
Align the cage with the screw holes on the system board.
-
Using a T10 Torx screwdriver, insert the four screws and
secure the cage in the compute node.
-
Install the hard disk drive backplane (see Installing a hard disk drive backplane).
-
Insert the storage drives, optional drive components, and
hard disk drive bay fillers. See Installing a hot-swap hard disk drive, Installing a solid state drive mounting sleeve,
or Installing a 1.8-inch solid state drive.
After you install the hard disk drive cage, 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).
