efore You Begin
This chapter describes how to install the following
options:
•
Drives that use the computer’s built-in diskette drive
controller.
•
Tape drives that use a controller card
NOTE: If you are installing a SCSI hard-disk drive, see
Chapter 10, “Installing Drives in the Internal Bays.”
To remove or install drives in the external bays, you must
remove both computer covers and front bezel according
to the instructions in “Removing the Computer Covers”
and “Removing the Front Bezel” in Chapter 7.
To protect the inside of the computer from foreign par-
ticles, a plastic front-panel insert covers each empty
external drive bay. Before you install a drive in an empty
bay, you must first remove the front-panel insert.
Whenever you remove a drive, be sure to replace the
front-panel insert over the empty bay.
