NOTE If the system has only one SATA hard drive, the data cable must be connected to the dark blue connector labeled SATA0 on the system board to avoid any hard drive performance problems. If you are adding a second hard drive, connect the other end of the data cable to the next available (unpopulated) SATA connector on the system board in the following order: SATA0, SATA1, SATA5, SATA4.

When replacing the hard drive, transfer the four screws from the old drive to the new one. You will need a Torx T-15 screwdriver to remove and re-install the guide screws. HP has provided four extra 6-32 standard guide screws on the front of the chassis, under the front bezel. The 6-32 standard guide screws are silver.

If you replaced the primary hard drive, use the Restore Plus! CD set that you created when you initially set up the computer to restore the operating system, software drivers, and any software applications that were preinstalled on the computer. When the restore process has completed, reinstall any personal files that you backed up before replacing the hard drive.
