Inserting a CD-ROM Drive into the Computer MultiBay

The system supports up to three CD-ROM drives—one in the computer MultiBay and two in the expansion base MultiBays. However, if two CD-ROM drives are in the expansion base, neither can play audio (music) CDs. If only one CD-ROM drive is in the expansion base and one is in the computer MultiBay, both can play audio (music) CDs.

IMPORTANT: Before inserting or removing a drive, be sure you have read the cautions under "Caring for Removable Drives" earlier in this chapter.

Follow these steps to insert the CD-ROM drive into the computer MultiBay.

1.Save your work and close applications.

2.Shut down the computer: click the Start button, click Shut Down, then click Yes.

3.Position the CD-ROM drive against the left side of the MultiBay and insert the drive into the MultiBay until it clicks into place. The system can recognize the CD-ROM drive only if it is properly seated.

NOTE: If you are unable to insert the drive easily, verify that the security screw has not been inserted into the bottom of the computer.
