surface, such as a foam pad, that will sufficiently cushion it.

NOTE: On systems with hard drives larger than 2 GB, create a primary partition of 2 GB and divide the remaining
capacity into partitions of 2 GB or less. For example, a system with a 2.5-GB hard drive would have a primary partition of
2 GB (drive C) and a second partition of 500 MB (drive D). Hard drives must be partitioned this way because MS-
DOS
®— based operating systems (including Microsoft ® Windows NT ® , when using a FAT16 file system) do not support
drive partitions larger than 2 GB.
CAUTION: To avoid the possibility of electric shock, turn off the computer and any peripherals, disconnect them from
electrical outlets, and then wait at least 5 seconds before you open the computer cover. Also, before you install a drive, see
the other precautions in "
