Removing a Hard Disk Drive 

The hard disk drive of your PC is attached to your 
HP Personal Media Drive bay. The hard disk drive is 
preloaded with the system recovery partition of your 
PC. If you remove this hard disk drive, store it in an 
antistatic bag that is properly sealed. 

 

 

CAUTION: Back up your personal files 
on the hard disk drive to an external 
storage device, such as a CD, before 
removing the hard disk drive. Failure 
to do so will result in data loss. After 
replacing the hard disk drive, you need 
to run System Recovery using the 
recovery discs to load the factory-
installed files. Please read “System 
Recovery” in your printed documentation 
for details about the recovery procedure.

 

You can replace the (primary) hard disk drive 
attached to the drive bay. 

The hard disk drive is either a Serial ATA (advanced 
technology attachment) drive that uses a narrow data 
cable, or a Parallel ATA drive that uses a wide data 
cable. 

To remove a hard disk drive 

 

Complete the procedures to prepare the PC and to 
remove the side panel as described in “Opening 
and Closing the PC” on page 1. 

Remove the front panel. See “Removing the Front 
Panel” on page 3. 

Make a note of each cable attached to the hard 
disk drive and back of the HP Personal Media Drive 
bay before removing the cables.
