Replacing an Existing CD-ROM Drive with the CRW8824S

The existing CD-ROM drive in the computer is assumed to be an IDE-type.

1Power down your computer and unplug it from the AC outlet.

If you proceed without doing this, you run the risk of receiving an electric shock and/or short-circuiting and damaging components including the CRW8824S drive.

2Remove the outer casing of the computer. If you need to remove screws in the process, make sure you don’t lose them.

The method for removing the casing and fitting the drive in the drive bay can vary depending on the manufacturer. Refer to the documentation that came with your computer for further details.
