Installing the SATA cable into the sled

Prerequisites

CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that are shipped with your product.
NOTE: Observe the routing of the cable as you remove it from the system. Route the cable properly when you replace it to prevent the cable from being pinched or crimped.
  1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in the Safety instructions section.
  2. Follow the procedure listed in the Before working inside your system section.
  3. Remove the sled from the enclosure.
  4. Remove the air shroud.

Steps

  1. Open the cable retention lock.
  2. Connect the SATA cable to the connector on the system board until the clips click into place. Repeat this step with the connector at the other end of the cable.
  3. Close the cable retention lock.
    NOTE: Ensure that the cable is inside the edge of the sled metal edge. The cable should not be on top or outside the edge. If the cable is not inside the sled edge it may get damaged when the sled is installed in the chassis.
