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.
