1. Turn OFF the desktop PC power and disconnect the power cable.
2. Remove the desktop PC cover.
3. If the SSD is added in addition to the existing storage device, mount it in a 2.5” HDD bay.
Next, connect the SATA cable and power cable to the SSD. If your PC is only equipped
with 3.5” HDD bays, then attach the SSD in a 2.5” to 3.5” bracket first and then mount the
bracket in an empty HDD bay or slot.
4. If you are replacing an existing HDD with the SSD, disconnect all cables connected to
the HDD and then remove the HDD from the bay. Attach the SSD in a 2.5” to 3.5” bracket
first and then mount the bracket in an empty HDD bay. Next connect the SATA cable
and power cable properly.
Note: You may need proprietary chassis screws, rails, or brackets to use in the drive bay.
Note: Desktop PCs have multiple SATA ports based on the PC chipset and motherboard model. It is
recommended that the SSD be connected to the lowest numbered SATA port. Most desktop
PCs have 4~6 SATA ports and each SATA port is numbered on the motherboard or indicated in
the user manual. If SATA port numbers are not indicated on the motherboard or you are not
sure about port numbers, then you can simply install the SSD on any available port.
