Inserting a Drive into the MultiBay

If the personal computer did not ship with a MultiBay drive, there will be a drive blank in the MultiBay. Refer to “Removing a Drive from the MultiBay” on page 2-6 for instructions on removing the drive blank.

1.Exit all software applications, shut down the operating system software, and turn off the personal computer if you are inserting or removing a hard drive.

2.Remove any removable media, such as a compact disc, from the drive.

3.With the top of the drive facing up (or left, when the personal computer is in the minitower position) and the drive connector facing the personal computer, slide the drive into the MultiBay and push firmly to ensure that the electrical connector is properly seated.
