Follow the steps on page 5-43 to replace the computer’s
cover. Then see “Post-installation Setup” on page 5-45
for instructions on configuring your computer for use
without a hard disk drive.
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.
