Installing a slim optical disc drive
1.Prepare the computer for disassembly (see Preparing to disassemble the computer on page 14).
2.Remove the access panel (see Access panel on page 15).
3.Be sure both the optical disc drive and the cage are right side up and slide the rear of the optical disc drive into through the front of the drive cage.
4.When the optical disc drive is positioned correctly, close the latch on the side of the drive cage.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the latch has engaged properly by moving or attempting to move the optical disc drive in the drive cage. If the optical disc drive can be moved, do not open the bracket. Instead, slide the optical disc drive within the cage until you hear the click of the bracket engaging and you can no longer move the optical disc drive. When the optical disc drive cannot be moved, the latch has engaged properly.
5.Align the optical disc drive above the hard drive with the disc tray opening toward the front of the chassis. Lower the optical disc drive onto the hard drive and next to the power supply.
