Removing Devices from the MultiBay
The MultiBay in the optional Mobile 3500 Expansion Unit
(M35EU) supports a diskette drive, LS-120 drive, Zip Drive, or
second hard drive.
CAUTION:
Some but not all MultiBay devices can be hot plugged.
Refer to "Bay Configuration" in Chapter 6 to determine if the
computer must be on or off before inserting or removing MultiBay
devices. This helps protect the computer or the device from
damage, or data loss.
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Before
touching the hard drive, ensure that you are discharged of static
electricity by touching a grounded metal object.
To remove a supported device from the MultiBay:
1. If your device is not hot-pluggable, turn off the computer.
2. Slide the MultiBay release lever to the left
