To verify the type, size, and capacity of the storage devices installed in the computer, run Computer Setup.

Installing and Removing Drives

When installing additional drives, follow these guidelines:

NOTE: Refer to System Board Connections on page 53 for an illustration of the system board drive connectors.

●The primary Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive must be connected to the dark blue primary SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA0.

●Connect a SATA optical drive to the white SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA1.

●Connect a media card reader USB cable to the USB connector on the system board labeled MEDIA1.

●The power cable for the SATA drives is a three-headed cable that is plugged into the system board with the first connector routed to the rear of the hard drive, the second connector routed to the rear of the 3.5” drive, and the third connector routed to the rear of the 5.25” optical drive.

●The system does not support Parallel ATA (PATA) optical drives or PATA hard drives.

●You must install mounting screws to ensure the drive will line up correctly in the drive cage and lock in place. HP has provided extra mounting screws for the internal drive bays (five 6-32 standard screws and four M3 metric screws), installed in the front of the chassis, under the front bezel. The 6-32 standard screws are required for a secondary hard drive (not supported). All other drives (except the primary hard drive) use M3 metric screws. The HP-supplied metric screws are black and the HP-supplied standard screws are silver.
