Adding a 5.25-inch device
You can install additional 5.25-inch devices such as a CD-RW drive or a tape
backup in the two other, externally accessible, 5.25-inch drive bays. An extra
set of rails is included with your system (clipped to the drive cage) and is used
for the installation.
You may need to purchase an additional cable of sufficient length to connect
the existing devices and the new device to the connector on the system board.
To install an additional device in the 5.25-inch drive bay:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if
installed), and all external peripheral devices.
2 Remove the left side cover panel. (See “Removing the side cover” on
page 18 and “Preventing static electricity discharge” on page 15.)
3 Remove the bezel. (See “To remove the bezel” on page 19.)
4 Remove the plastic bezel insert covering the open bay by disengaging the
retaining tab and pushing the insert out from the back of the bezel.
