Installing a Drive
Installing a hard Drive in Bays 5 and 6
Drive bays 5 and 6 can be configured with either 1.0-inch or 1.6-inch
hard drives. Other than using different screw holes, the installation
for both drives is basically the same.
CAUTION: Use only 3/16-inch guide screws. Longer screws can
damage the internal components of the drive.
If you are installing an Ultra ATA device, see “Guidelines for
Installing Ultra ATA Devices” in Appendix B.
If you are installing a SCSI device, see “SCSI Devices” in
Appendix B.
To install a hard drive in bay 5 or 6:
1. Shut down the operating system properly, then turn off the
workstation and any external devices. Disconnect the power cord
from the grounded AC outlet.
2. Remove the workstation access panel. See “Removing the
Workstation Access Panel” in this chapter.
