Installing Additional Drives

When installing additional drives, follow these guidelines:

●The primary Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive must be connected to the dark blue SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA0.

●Connect the first SATA optical drive to the white SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA1.

●Connect devices in order of SATA0, SATA1, SATA2, then SATA3.

●Connect an optional eSATA adapter cable to the black ESATA connector on the system board.

●Connect a media card reader USB cable to the USB connector on the system board labeled MEDIA. If the media card reader has a 1394 port, connect the 1394 cable to the 1394 PCI card.

●The system does not support Parallel ATA (PATA) optical drives or PATA hard drives.

●You may install either a third-height or a half-height drive into a half-height bay.

●You must install guide screws to ensure the drive will line up correctly in the drive cage and lock in place. HP has provided extra guide screws installed on the chassis. The hard drive uses 6-32 isolation mounting guide screws, eight of which are installed on the hard drive bracket under the access panel. All other drives use M3 metric screws, eight of which are installed on the optical drive bracket under the access panel. The HP-supplied metric guide screws are black. The HP-supplied 6-32 isolation mounting guide screws are silver and blue. If you are replacing the primary hard drive, you must remove the four silver and blue 6-32 isolation mounting guide screws from the old hard drive and install them in the new hard drive.
