Note

If you remove one IDE hard disk drive and are leaving another one in the system, you must set the jumpers on the remaining drive to indicate that you have only one IDE drive installed. Remove the other drive following steps 1 and 2, above; then see page 7-4 or the documentation that came with your hard disk drive for instructions on setting the jumpers.

3.If you removed your only IDE hard disk drive, remove the hard disk drive cable from its connector on the main system board. First remove the cable from the clasp on the left side of the subassembly. Then disconnect the cable from the main system board connector.

4.If you need to connect the drive cable on your remaining drive, see “Connecting the Cables,” below.

Installing a Drive

Follow these steps to install a new drive (or reinstall a drive you removed):

1.Position the drive so its mounting screw holes face the outside of the drive bay and its power supply and drive connectors face the front of the subassembly, as shown in the following illustration. Then lower the drive into the bay.
