cover. Then see “Post-installation Setup” later in Chapter 5
for instructions on configuring your computer for use

After you change your computer’s drive configuration, your
computer may take several minutes to complete power-on
diagnostics the next time you turn it on.
Installing or Removing a Disk Drive in the
Horizontal Position
This section describes how to install or remove a drive in the
lower horizontal drive bay. You can use these same instructions
if you need to install a different diskette drive in the upper drive
bay. (The illustrations show the lower bay.)
If you are installing a second hard disk or diskette drive, you
must install it in the lower horizontal drive bay. If you have a
hard disk drive installed in the vertical mounting position,
remove it before you remove or install a drive in a horizontal
drive bay. See “Removing a Hard Disk From the Vertical
Position” on page B-24.
If
you do not need to remove a hard disk drive from the vertical
position (or have already done so), follow the steps under
“Removing the Subassembly,” below. You must remove the
entire subassembly from the computer before you can access a
drive in a horizontal drive bay.
