Installing and Removing Drives

When installing additional drives, follow these guidelines:

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

●Connect a 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 eSATA adapter cable to the orange SATA3 connector.

NOTE: The eSATA adapter installs into one of the expansion slots on the rear of the computer. You must configure the SATA3 connector to function as eSATA in the Computer Setup utility. Select Storage > Storage Options > eSATA Port to reconfigure the SATA3 connector. Refer to the Computer Setup (F10) Utility Guide for more information.

●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 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 for the external drive bays (four 6-32 isolation mounting guide screws and eight M3 metric guide screws), installed on the side of the drive bays. The 6-32 isolation mounting screws are required for a secondary hard drive. All other drives (except the primary hard drive) use M3 metric screws. The HP-supplied metric screws are black and the HP-supplied isolation mounting 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.
