PX-Q840U/ PX-806SA Installation and Users Manual  

19

 

Mount the PX-806SA Drive 

Before proceeding to install the PX-806SA drive in your personal 
computer, make sure you have all the cables you’ll need. 

Record the Serial Number  

Note the serial number of your drive on the inside front cover of this 
manual.  

Mount the Drive in the Computer 

You can mount your internal drive in any available bay. You must 
remove the small panel that covers the bay that you want to use. 
 

NOTE

: The drive can be mounted horizontally or vertically 

 
If you don’t have an empty bay, remove the existing DVD-ROM or CD-
ROM drive and install the PX-806SA. 
 
You must make two cable connections to your PX-806SA. The two 
cable connections that you must make are:  

 

SATA cable 

 

Power cable 

 

To mount the PX-806SA drive: 

1.

 

Before proceeding, make sure the power to your computer and any 
external peripherals is OFF and your computer is UNPLUGGED 
from its power source. 

 
2.

 

Remove your computer’s cover, following the directions provided by 
your computer’s manufacturer. Typically, this involves loosening or 
removing several screws on the back panel of your computer and 
sliding off the cover. See the illustration below for an example.
