Installing a Floppy Drive

3Attach the floppy drive bracket to the floppy drive:

a Align the screw holes on the drive with the screw holes on the bracket. b Insert and tighten all four drive-securing screws (two on each side).

4Position the top of the floppy drive bracket so that it is completely flush with the bottom of the upper drive bay, and then slide the floppy drive bracket forward into position.

NOTE: The top of the floppy drive bracket has two slots that fit into two clips on the bottom of the upper drive bay. When the floppy drive bracket is properly mounted, it remains in place without support.
