Changing Ultra Slim Bay modules
This section explains how to change modules in the Ultra Slim Bay. The
illustrations show replacement of the optical disc drive with the Ultra Slim
Bay HDD Adaptor.
Removing a module
To remove the optical disc drive, follow the steps as described below:
1. Save your work.
2. Turn the computer's power off - ensure that the Power indicator is off.
3. Remove all cables and peripherals that are connected to the computer.
4. Close the display panel.
5. Turn the computer upside down and remove the battery pack (refer to
Replacing the battery pack section in Chapter 6, Power and Power-Up
Modes, if required).
6. Remove the Ultra Slim Bay lock screw from the Lock position.
7. Set the Ultra Slim Bay lock screw in the Unlock position.
■ Do not point the web camera directly at the sun.
■ Do not touch or press strongly on the web camera lens. Doing so may
reduce image quality. Use an eyeglass cleaner (cleaner cloth) or other
soft cloth to clean the lens if it becomes dirty.
■ Setting the [Size] to more than "800x600" will cause a larger amount of
data to be written to the hard disk drive and may interfere with smooth
recording.
■ When recording in dimly lit environments, the following procedure can
be used to select "Night Mode" which allows for brighter images with
less noise.
1. Click the Properties button on the [Web Camera] menu.
2. Check Night Mode on the [Options] tab.
3. Click the OK button.
The number of frames per second is lowered when "video recording" in
"Night Mode". This may result in the playback of the recorded video file
seeming unsmooth.
To avoid injury, do not put your hand into the Ultra Slim Bay slot.
Always make sure the display panel is closed in Laptop mode before
turning the computer upside down.
Wait for all disk indicators to go out before you turn over the computer and
do not lay the computer down gently. Shock can damage the HDD or other
components.
