Removing the Optical Drive
Your computer comes with one or two optical drives
(CD, DVD, or combo) which you can replace or
upgrade. These drives are located in the two fixed
bays at the top of the chassis.
To have better access to the back of the drive when
you are removing the top optical drive, remove the
two screws on both optical drives, and then push
both drives part way out through the front of the
computer.
1 Locate the two screws (D) on the optical drive
and remove them. Push the drive partway out
through the front of the computer.
2 Remove the cables attached to the back of the
drive you want to replace. Make note of each
connection and the plug orientation before
disconnecting the cables.
3 Pull the drive out through the front of the
computer.
