4-26 Installing Options
Data Storage Devices
The system board supports the following storage devices:
!
one diskette drive
!
up to four IDE drives, such as an IDE hard drive, IDE CD-ROM
drive, DVD-ROM drive, CD-RW drive, and an IDE Zip drive.
In addition, the system can support other storage devices (SCSI or
PCMCIA-based, for example) with the installation of a compatible
controller board. See your hardware dealer about the storage devices
available for your system.
Locating Device Bays
The system has seven storage device bays (see the following figure):
!
two 3 1/2-inch accessible device bays, one containing the standard
1.44-MB diskette drive
!
two 5 1/4-inch accessible device bays (1.6-inch high, half-height), one
containing the standard CD-ROM drive
!
three 3 1/2-inch internal drive bays, one containing the standard hard
drive.
Depending on your system configuration, the accessible device bays
might contain a CD-ROM drive, DVD-ROM drive, CD-RW drive, Zip
drive, or other storage device.
The accessible bays are not limited to devices with removable media. For
example, you can install a hard drive with a 5 1/4-inch frame in one of
these bays.
A 5 1/4-inch bay can also accommodate a 3 1/2-inch device if the device
is housed in a 5 1/4-inch frame.
