Removing the Hard Drive

✎If the system has only one SATA hard drive, the data cable must be connected to the blue connector labeled P60 SATA 0 on the system board to avoid any hard drive performance problems.

✎When replacing the hard drive, transfer the four screws from the old drive to the new one. The screws take the place of drive rails. You will need a Torx T-15 screwdriver to remove and re-install the guide screws. HP has provided four extra 6-32 standard guide screws on the front of the chassis, under the computer cover. The 6-32 standard guide screws are silver.
