System Components
7
Place the old drive in an antistatic bag or container, then place the new
hard drive on a static-free surface with the top up and the connectors
facing you.
8
Install two small, plastic drive mounting rails (“L” rail on the left and
“R” rail on the right) to the new hard drive, making sure the front rail
extensions are towards the front of the device. Align the wire retention
clips to the mounting holes in the drive and pressing the rails to the sides
of the drive.
9
Align the rails with an open bay in the bottom drive cage, and slide the
drive into the cage until the locking tabs snap into place (be sure that
the data and power connectors on the drive face outward).
10
Connect the power and data cables to the drive. (See drive documentation
for proper drive jumper settings and cable orientation.)
11
Close the case, as described in Chapter 3.
12
Reconnect the power and modem cords, then turn on the system.
Installing an additional hard drive
The system comes equipped with a drive cage that will accept additional
internal hard drives. You will have to purchase an IDE cable with three
connectors and of sufficient length to connect the existing hard drive and
the new drive to the IDE connector on the system board.
