As you lift up on the fan bracket, the top alignment tabs will be removed from their hard disk drive alignment screws, and the bottom alignment tabs will be removed from their alignment holes allowing the fan to be taken out of the system unit. If you are removing the hard disk drive fan to get access to the memory cards, you do not need to unplug the fan’s power cable. Once the hard disk drive fan is removed, place it on top of the hard disk drive chassis.
