9Close the case (see “Closing the case” on page 19.)

10Reconnect the power and modem cords, and turn on the system.

Adding a second hard drive

The system comes with a metal drive-mounting bracket you can use to install an additional internal hard drive. Due to difficulties in routing the existing IDE connector cable to this drive, you will need to purchase a PCI IDE drive controller add-in card and an additional IDE connector cable to complete the installation.

To install a second hard drive:

1Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if installed), and all external peripheral devices.

2Open the case (see “Opening the case” on page 17), observing the “Static electricity precautions” on page 15.

3Locate and remove the two screws that attach the mounting bracket to the front of the chassis.
