4 Installing Mass Storage Devices
Introduction
This chapter describes how to install the internal mass storage devices, including
the internal hard disk drives (IDE or SCSI) and the optional Tape Backup (DAT)
Drive. The requirements for external SCSI drives are provided in the respective
topic later in this chapter.
The base HP NetServer E 200 comes standard with one flexible disk drive, one
IDE CD-ROM, and at least one SCSI or IDE hard disk drive. The removable mass
storage cage can hold an additional four hard disk drives with cabling.
Please refer to the appropriate section below according to your NetServer
configuration (IDE or SCSI).
