2 How to Install Accessories In Your PC Installing Mass Storage Devices

 

Installing an IDE Hard Disk Drive in the Bottom Rear Shelf

 

The PC has an integrated Enhanced IDE controller which supports two

 

Fast IDE hard disk drives. Refer to the drive’s manuals to see if you

 

must set jumpers or if there is a special installation procedure to follow.

 

You can install either a 3.5-inch or a 5.25-inch hard disk drive in this

 

shelf. It is recommended that you use the bottom rear shelf if you want

 

to replace the existing hard disk drive. You can use the top rear shelf

 

(located under the power supply) if you want to install a second hard

 

disk drive.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION

Handle the hard disk drive with care. Avoid shocks and violent

 

movement as this can cause damage to the hard disk drive’s internal

 

components.

 

Make sure that you back up your files before you install a hard disk

 

drive. Refer to your operating system documentation for information on

 

how to do this.
