slightly to clear other
hardware and pull
straight out, rotating
slightly clockwise, to
disengage it.
Inserting the pointed
end of a black stick
into the top screw
hole may help to pull
out the cowling.
Be careful not to
catch on components
underneath.
Note: The left side of
the cowling clips onto
a clip screw on the
heatsink inside the
housing.
Reassembly
Important: Make sure
that the Ambient sensor
cable does not go over
the top of the drives ex
cable connectors, as the
cowling helps to hold
them in place.
Important: Do not overtighten screws. Install all screws by hand. Do not use power tools.
