Replacing optical drive (optional)

This server system supports a slim-type optical disk drive. Follow the steps below

to replace the optical disk drive.

1. Remove the screw that secures the

optical drive. Keep the screw for

reassembly.

2. Remove the SATAII/SAS drive tray

by pushing the spring lock to the

right, then pulling the tray lever

outward. The drive tray ejects

slightly after you pull out the lever.

3. Firmly hold the tray lever and pull

the drive tray out of the bay.

4. Pull the optical drive module.

5. Carefully insert the replacement

optical disk drive module into the

drive bay until it is securely seated

in place.

6. Carefully insert the drive tray and

push it all the way to the depth of

the bay until just a small fraction of

the tray edge protrudes.

7. Push the tray lever until it clicks,

and secures the drive tray in place.

The drive tray is correctly placed

when its front edge aligns with the

bay edge.

8. Secure the optical drive with the

screw that you removed in step 1.
