tray, then slide out the old hard drive.
5 Slide the drive tray back into the bay until it clicks into place.

NOTE Ensure that you have installed all the required operating system and HP
drivers on the newly installed drive. To reinstall operating system and
HP drivers, use the
Image Creation & Recovery CD-ROM
provided
with the PC. In addition, you can find the most up-to-date versions of
HP drivers on HP’s Web site at:

Installing a Second Hard Disk Drive
CAUTION Handle the hard disk drive with care. Avoid shocks and violent
movement as this can cause damage to the hard disk drive’s internal
components.
Make sure that you back up your files before you install a hard disk
drive. Refer to your operating system documentation for information on
how to do this.
