Internal Cable Routing and Connectors
The server uses cables to connect SATA attached, hot-swap SATA, hot-swap SAS
and DVD drive devices to the power supply and to the system board.
Review the following information before connecting power and signal cables to
internal drives:
v The drives that are preinstalled in the server come with power and signal cables
attached. If you replace any drives, remember which cable is attached to which
drive.
v When you route a cable, make sure that it does not block the airflow to the rear
of the drives or over the microprocessor or DIMMs.
