an antistatic surface.
8. Position the new plastic carrier and drive assembly so that it engages
the bay guide rails.
9. Push the drive into the bay. To engage the latch, the carrier handle
should be approximately at a 45° angle from the vertical front of the
chassis. As you push the drive into the bay, the two rounded notches in
the carrier handle (Figure 22) slide onto the two round pegs inside the
drive bay . When they engage, push the handle straight up to lock the
notches onto the pegs and press the rounded tab on the right of the
carrier to the left until it clears the edge of the bay and snaps into place.
