Replacing and Adding Drives
Installing an additional 3.5-inch device
The second 3.5-inch drive bay can be used to install a 3.5-inch device such
as a tape drive, a 100 MB or 120 MB disk storage device, or an additional
3.5-inch diskette drive. A set of rails are included in your system (in the drive
bay under the diskette drive) and are used during the installation. You will
have to purchase an IDE cable with three connectors and of sufficient length
to connect the existing devices and the new device to the riser card IDE
connector.
To install an additional device in the 3.5-inch drive bay:
1
Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if
installed), and all external peripheral devices.
2
Open the case (see “Opening the case” on page 17) and remove the front
bezel (see “To remove the front bezel:” on page 18), observing the “Static
electricity precautions” on page 15.
3
Remove the bezel insert by disengaging the retaining tab and pushing
the insert out from the back of the bezel. (You can save and replace the
insert should you need to remove the device and continue to use the
system.
)
4
Remove the 3.5-inch diskette and CD drive (see “3.5-inch diskette or CD
drives” on page 24.) This will allow access to the bottom drive bay.
