catches the front of the computer chassis.
6. Squeeze the sides of the rail guides on the side of the old hard disk drive and
slide the drive out of the bay.
7. Remove the sliding rail guides from the old hard disk drive.
8. Touch the static-protective package containing the new drive to any unpainted
metal surface on the computer; then, remove the drive from the package and
place it on a static-protective surface.
9. Set any jumpers or switches on the drive according to the documentation that
comes with the drive.
10. Attach the sliding rails from the old hard disk drive to the sides of the hard disk

12. If you are installing an IDE device, connect one end of the IDE signal cable
into the back of the drive and the other end of the cable into the IDE connector
on the system board. For the location of the IDE connectors, see “System
board internal cable connectors” on page 59. If you are installing a SCSI
device, connect one end of the SCSI signal cable to the device and the other
end to the SCSI connector on the SCSI adapter.
Note: Make sure to route the signal cable so that it does not block the airflow
to the rear of the drives or over the microprocessor.
