Using Your NEC Versa 4-11
Customizing Your System with the VersaBay II
It’s easy to customize your NEC Versa using the VersaBay II. If you find
you require additional hard disk space or increased battery longevity, simply
remove the standard device and plug in an optional hard disk drive or bat-
tery.
NOTE
If you install a second hard disk drive in the VersaBay II, it
can be set to either master or slave.
However, if you use a 19mm hard disk drive from a previous NEC
Versa model, the drive is automatically set to master. (The Master
drive is the drive from which the system boots.)
Add another hard disk drive, or second Li-Ion battery pack as follows.
1.
Remove the standard diskette drive or CD-ROM reader from the Ver-
saBay II as described earlier, steps 1 through 4.
2.
Prepare your option for installation as follows:
To install a battery pack, first connect it to the bay adapter that came
with the battery. (Follow the instructions that came with the battery
pack.)
To install a hard disk drive, first connect it to the appropriate bay
adapter. (Follow the instructions that come with the hard disk drive.)
3.
Align the option and its carrier in the VersaBay II and push it in until the
option clicks into place.
4.
Turn the system over and power on or return from Suspend mode. The
system automatically recognizes the newly installed option.
