Removing a Drive
✎
Compaq does not support mixing Ultra ATA and SCSI hard
drives in the same system. If you are replacing a hard drive in
bay 4 or bay 5, the replacement drive should be of the same
type as the drive being removed.
1.
Turn off the workstation and any external devices. Disconnect the
power cord from the grounded AC outlet.
On a power-managed system, the power cord must be
disconnected from the grounded AC outlet.
2.
Remove the workstation access panel. Refer to Removing the
Workstation Access Panel in this chapter.
3.
Remove the front bezel. Refer to Removing the Front Bezel in
this chapter.
4.
Disconnect the drive power and signal cables and, if it is a
CD-ROM drive, disconnect the audio connector.
5.
Slide the drivelock to unlock the drive in the drive bay. If the drive
is in the desktop position, press the drivelock button to unlock the
drive.
Releasing the drives with the drivelock
6.
While sliding the drivelock, push from the back of the drives until
the drive casing can be grasped from the front of the workstation.
