This picture shows the correct orientation for the processor termination chip that we placed in our unused second processor socket. Copy of P1010198.jpg (24770 bytes)
Here we are pointing at the processor speed configuration jumper which we hope you took our earlier advice on setting before installing the riser card.  The instruction manual has this step after  and so we had to take the riser out once again. It has been our experience over the years that the more often a riser is removed and then re-installed  the more often we encounter hardware problems. Copy of P1010199.jpg (18569 bytes)
Here is a close up of the voltage regulator that we would have installed if we had two processors on this system. Copy of P1010200.jpg (20553 bytes)
Close up of two times 256 MB SDimms.  These are ecc and registered.  Note that you must install the memory in order using bank 1 then 2 and so on. Copy of P1010201.jpg (20614 bytes)
We have taken the upper hot swap carrier out of the SR2100 so that we can install the first of two Maxtor/Quantum Atlas 10K III hard drives . These drives are SCA pinned and that means no setting ID's and no separate power connector.  If you are unsure about what drives to get seek out professional technical  advice.  The 2 upper bays of the SR2100 (4 bays in total) can accommodate 1.6" drives and the lower two can accomodate 1"drives.  The latching mechanism for the hot swap bays is a straightforward and simple design that should prove durable over time.  Copy of P1010202.jpg (24276 bytes)
