Removing or Installing Device Rails
The 5 1/4-inch bays are designed for use with devices that have tabbed rails. These rails allow a
device to be easily inserted and removed from the system. If you remove a device from the
system, always save the rails, right in the bay if it is empty, to use on a replacement device.
1. Remove a rail by removing the two or three screws that secure it to the side of the device.
2. Secure each rail to the new device with the screws (two or three to a side) from the old
device.
