Installing a Hard Drive into a Carrier
To install a hard drive into a hard drive carrier, perform the following steps after removing the hard
drive carrier from the chassis:
1. Place the hard drive carrier on a flat, stable surface such as a desk, table, or work bench.
2. Slide the hard drive into the carrier with the printed circuit board side facing down (see
Figure 5-8
).
3. Carefully align the mounting holes in the hard drive and the carrier. Make sure the bottom of
the hard drive and bottom of the hard drive carrier are flush.
4. Secure the hard drive using all six screws (see
Figure 5-8
).
5. Replace the drive carrier into the chassis. Make sure to close the drive carrier using the drive
carrier handle.
