opening.
NOTE: Installing filler brackets over empty card-slot openings is necessary to maintain FCC certification
of the computer. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of your computer.

Your computer supports a combination of these devices:
• One serial ATA drive
• One FlexBay drive (optional floppy drive or Media Card Reader)
• One CD or DVD drive
Connect a CD or DVD drive to the connector labeled "IDE_OPT" on the system board. A serial
ATA hard drive should be connected to the connector labeled "SATA0" on the system board.

When you install a drive, you connect two cables—a DC power cable and a data cable—or a single
interface cable to the back of the drive and to the system board.
