Removing and Attaching the Mounting Plate
If you are installing a new hard disk drive in your computer,
you need to attach a hard disk drive mounting plate to the
drive. This mounting plate is currently attached to the right
side of the subassembly.
Follow these steps to remove the mounting plate from your
computer:
1.
Remove the screw securing the mounting plate to the
computer and set it aside. Then lift up the mounting
plate to remove it.
2.
Turn your hard disk drive so the components are facing
up and the connectors at the back of the drive are facing
to the right.
