Using the Hard Disk Drive

Your computer comes with a removable hard disk drive as drive C. A hard disk drive is a storage device with non-removable, rotating, magnetic storage platters inside it. It is where your operating system and application software programs are stored.

Your hard disk drive is a 2.5-inch IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) hard disk drive. This type of drive embodies the latest in fast, reliable mass storage by integrating all the control circuitry necessary for operation directly onto the drive itself. This allows the drive manufacturer to carefully optimize drive performance.

The system comes with a built-in heater that automatically turns on for low temperature operation. The HDD heater on indicator blinks red when heater is on.

NOTE: To use the HDD heater feature, the MTCCTRL driver supplied with your computer must be installed (see chapter 6 for details).

CAUTION:

Make regular backups of your data files from your hard disk drive to floppy disks or other storage media.

Never try to remove or install the hard disk drive while the computer is powered on. Doing so can result in loss of data, and can damage the computer and the hard disk drive’s sensitive circuitry.

Never turn off or reset the computer while the hard disk drive in-use indicator is on.

To install a hard disk drive:

1.Make sure that system power is off.

2.Locate the hard disk drive slot on the left side of the system.

3.Open the hard disk drive slot cover by pressing on both sides of the release latch using your thumb and index fingers.

4.Place the hard disk drive into the metal shield and tighten the four screws.

5.Slide the HDD module into the slot until it reaches the end.

6.Close the hard disk drive slot cover to secure the HDD module.

NOTE: Before removing the hard disk drive, make sure to power down the system first.
