After adding optional components and making adjustments to the system, replace the cover and access panels by reversing the removal procedures.

Installing the Drive

1.Turn the computer off, unplug the power cord, and disconnect all peripheral devices. Remove the system cover and rear drive bay panel (see “Removing the System Cover” on page 19).

2.Attach a guide rail to each side of the drive. Attach each rail to the bottom set of holes on the drive. Align each rail so its tapered end is close to the back of the drive.

3.Slide the drive into the bay until it snaps into place. (To remove a drive, press the tabs on the guide rails until the drive slides freely.)

4.Attach a power-supply cable to the drive, then attach the primary IDE controller cable to the drive. Refer to the appropriate step in “Installing a Drive in the Front Drive Bay” on page 27 for details.

5.Close the rear panel, and reinstall the screws you removed in step 1. Replace the system cover. Reconnect peripheral devices and plug in the power cord. Turn on the system.

6.If you have installed a hard drive, run System Setup and use the hard-disk type field under the appropriate menu

– Primary Hard Drives or Secondary Hard Drives – to configure the drive. You do not need to run System Setup if you have installed a drive that uses an add-in controller.

7.After installing a new hard drive, refer to the documentation that came with your drive to determine whether you need to partition and format it. If you are using DOS, perform FDISK and FORMAT (refer to your DOS documentation for details).

When using FDISK and FORMAT, make sure you are addressing the new drive, and not an existing drive that contains data. FDISK and FORMAT will delete all data on a hard drive.
