Removing Brackets from a Drive
To remove the brackets from the drive you are replacing, follow the steps below. You
will need a medium (#2) Phillips screwdriver.
1.
Remove the eight screws and washers (four for each bracket) that secure the
drive to the brackets.
If the drive assembly contains two half-height drives and you want to detach
just one half-height drive from the brackets, remove only the four screws and
washers that attach that drive to the brackets. There is no need to detach the
other half-height drive from the brackets. Figure 7Ć6 shows how to remove the
brackets from full-height and half-height drives.
