Installing a New Optical Drive
NOTE: If you are installing an optical drive in a bay that did not previously have a drive in it, you must
remove the access panel and the bezel blank covering the opening of the bay before proceeding. Follow
the procedures in
Computer Access Panel on page 163 and Bezel Blanks on page 165.
1. Attach the release latch to the new optical drive. Refer to Preparing a New Optical Drive
on page 171.
2. Align the optical drive with the opening in the front bezel. Make sure the back of the optical drive
is being inserted first and the release latch is on the inner side of the drive.
3. Slide the optical drive into the computer through the front bezel. However, do not slide it all the way
in until it locks. Leave it approximately 6 mm (1/4 inch) short of the fully-inserted locked position to
allow room to connect the cable.
