Server warnings and precautions
WARNING! Hazardous voltages are present inside the server. Always disconnect AC power from the server
and other associated assemblies while working inside the unit. Serious injury may result if this warning is not
observed.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the hot-plug drives and the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
•Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety
feature.
•Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all
times.
•Disconnect all power cords to completely remove power from the system.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating
uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges
and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.
CAUTION: The server must always be operated with the system top cover closed. Proper cooling is not
achieved if the system top cover is removed.
Hardware configuration information
Electrostatic discharge information
Proper packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. To prevent
electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
•Transport products in static-safe containers such as conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.

Hard drives
The server has two HDD bays that support both non-hot-plug SATA hard drives and hot-plug SATA or SAS hard
drives. You can add a hard drive to an empty HDD bay by installing an appropriate drive option; servers
configured as non-hot-plug systems cannot use hot-plug hard drives, and servers configured as hot-plug systems
cannot use non-hot-plug hard drives.
The non-hot-plug SATA drive options include only the hard drive. Install these drive options using the HDD
carriers and mounting screws included with a server configured for non-hot-plug drives.
The hot-plug SATA and SAS drive options are pre-installed in hot-plug HDD carriers. Use these hot-plug drive
assemblies to replace any installed hardware in an HDD bay of a server configured for hot-plug drives. A hot-
plug HDD bay may contain a blank drive carrier or a hot-plug drive assembly.
Go to the HP website at http://www.hp.com/ and refer to the options list for this server model for the latest
information on supported hard drives.
Hard drive installation guidelines
Observe the following important guidelines when installing hard drives:
•Install only hard drive models specified for your ProLiant server. Installing unsupported hard drives may
damage the system by consuming power and generating heat in excess of the operating tolerance of the
server. This condition may result in a loss of system and/or data integrity.
•Install non-hot-plug SATA hard drives in the HDD carriers included with the server. Use four of the six HDD
screws pre-installed in each of the two HDD carriers.
