Empty drive bays contain a front-panel insert to protect the inside of the computer
from dust particles and also to ensure proper airflow within the computer. Before you
install a drive in an empty drive bay, you must first remove the front-panel insert.
To remove the insert covering a 5.25-inch bay
, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect all the AC
power cables from their power sources.
2. Remove the computer cover as instructed in “Removing the Computer Cover” in
Chapter 7.
3. With your thumbs, press in on each end of the insert until the insert snaps free of
the cover (see Figure 9-2).
