COMPAQ CONFIDENTIAL - NEED TO KNOW REQUIRED
Installing an IDE CD-ROM or Tape Drive
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic
components of the workstation or optional equipment. Before
beginning these procedures, ensure that you are discharged of
static electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal object. See
Appendix B for more information.
NOTE: These procedures can also be used for installing a SCSI device. For
more information, refer to the documentation that came with the SCSI device
option kit.
1. Turn off the workstation and any external devices. Disconnect the power
cord from the grounded AC outlet. Disconnect the network cable and
any external devices from the system. remove the workstation access
panel.
IMPORTANT: On a power-managed system, the power cord must be
disconnected from the grounded AC outlet.
2. Install two guide screws on each side of the drive. If there are multiple
screw holes on the sides of the drives, use the lower set of holes.
NOTE: Some options use M3 metric hardware, such as in the 5.25-inch,
one-half height external bay. Extra guide screws are provided on the front of
the chassis, under the front bezel. Compaq-supplied metric screws are black.
3. Install the drive in the desired drive bay by sliding it into the front of the
drive cage; the drivelock automatically secures the drive in the bay.
NOTE: Be sure the guide screws line up with the guide slots in the drive
cage.
