Drives

The case must be opened to add or replace drives (such as disk drives and CD-ROM drives) in the system. Refer to “Opening the System” on page 3, for instructions on opening and closing the case. While SCA-2 SCSI drives can be added or removed without opening the case, installing and removing these drives is discussed under “SCSI Hard Disk Drives” on page 54.

The Diskette Drive

The diskette drive is included in the original configuration. If you need to replace the diskette drive, follow the instructions below.
