Replacing the hard disk drive -----------------------------------------------

You can increase the storage capacity of your computer by replacing the hard disk drive with one of greater capacity. You can purchase a new hard disk drive from your reseller or Lenovo marketing representative.

Notes:

Replace the hard disk drive only if you upgrade it or have it repaired. The connectors and bay of the hard disk drive were not designed for frequent changes, or drive swapping.

The preinstalled softwares are not included on an optional hard disk drive.

Handling a hard disk drive

Do not drop the drive or subject it to physical shocks. Put the drive on a material, such as soft cloth, that absorbs the physical shock.

Do not apply pressure to the cover of the drive.

Do not touch the connector.

The drive is very sensitive. Incorrect handling can cause damage and perma- nent loss of data on the hard disk. Before removing the hard disk drive, make a backup copy of all the information on the hard disk, and then turn the com- puter off. Never remove the drive while the system is operating, in sleep mode, or in hibernation mode.
