Installing Additional Drives

The computer has two external drive bays. When installing additional drives, follow these guidelines:

For optimal performance, connect hard drives to the primary controller. Connect expansion devices, such as optical, IDE tape, and diskette drives, to the secondary controller using an 80-conductor IDE cable.

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 (four 6-32 standard screws and four M3 metric screws), installed in the front of the chassis, behind the bezel. The hard drive uses 6-32 standard screws. All other drives use M3 metric screws. The HP-supplied metric screws are black and the HP-supplied standard screws are silver.

ÄCAUTION: To prevent loss of work and damage to the computer or drive:

If you are inserting or removing a hard drive, shut down the operating

system properly, then turn off the computer. Do not remove a hard drive while the computer is on or in standby mode.

Before handling a drive, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive, avoid touching the connector. For more information about preventing electrostatic damage, see Appendix F, “Electrostatic Discharge.”

Handle a drive carefully; do not drop it.

Do not use excessive force when inserting a drive.

Avoid exposing a hard drive to liquids, temperature extremes, or products that have magnetic fields such as monitors or speakers.

If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble-pack mailer or other suitable protective packaging and label the package “Fragile: Handle With Care.”
