2.6 5.25-inch drives

If you have previously used and powered up the system, and that it may be connected to an AC power source, make sure to unplug the power cable before installing or removing any system components. Failure to do so may cause damage to the motherboard and other system compo- nents!

Three 5.25-inch drive bays are located on the upper front part of the chassis. An optical drive that comes standard with the system package occupies the uppermost bay (labeled 1). The two lower bays (labeled 2 and 3) are available for additional 5.25‑inch devices.

To install a 5.25-inch drive:

1.Use a Phillips (cross) screwdriver to remove the screws that secure the metal cover of the bay where you want to install the drive.
