An additional external hard drive can be connected using a hot-swap SATA mobile
rack for 2.5" or 3.5" hard drives.
Please bear in mind that only the mobile rack supplied can be used.
8.2.1.
Installing a 3.5" hard drive in a 2.5"/3.5"
mobile rack
The mobile rack is made of plastic and enables the hard drive to be installed with-
out the need for tools.
The 2.5"/3.5" mobile rack features a pre-mounted hard drive decoupler, comprising
plastic as mountings.
Proceed as follows:
Unlock the mobile rack by pressing the release lever.
Pull the mobile rack out of the slot.
Place the mobile rack onto a firm surface with the open side facing upwards. If
necessary, use a soft surface to minimise any knocks or collisions. The handle
must be facing in your direction.
Pull the hard drive decoupler out of the mobile rack.
The upper side of the hard drive is face up and the contacts
are to the bottom right. Now insert the hard drive at an angle
into one side of the mobile rack.
Ensure that both small hooks on the mobile rack slide into
the screw holes on the hard drive. Then carefully allow the
hard drive to slide completely into the mobile rack.
Press the hard drive decoupler back into the mobile rack. En-
sure that both metal pins slide into the screw holes on the
hard drive.
Carefully slide the mobile rack into the slot until it clicks into
place.
Lock the mobile rack in place by pressing on the handle until it audibly clicks
into place. The hard drive will be recognised and can now be used.
