Installing an Additional 3 1/2-Inch Device — Desktop
The desktop system has an accessible 3 1/2-inch bay that can
accommodate a second hard drive, or a second diskette drive.
(For instructions on replacing the internal hard drive, see
"Installing a 3 1/2-Inch Internal Hard Drive — Desktop").
To install a 3 1/2-inch device in the 3 1/2-inch accessible
device bay, proceed as follows.
1. Follow the preinstallation instructions that come with
your device, such as setting jumpers.
See "Preparing the Device" for device preparation
information.
2. Remove the system unit cover (see "Removing the Small
Desktop or Desktop Cover").
3. Remove the front panel (see "Removing the Front
Panel — Desktop").
4. Remove the metallic breakaway shield covering the
device bay.
5. If you are installing a diskette drive, remove the device
bay cover from the front panel by squeezing the locking
tabs together (see the following figure).
6. Insert the device, connector end first, into the bay. Align
the screw holes in the drive with the holes in the drive
bracket (see the second figure on the following page).
7. Insert and tighten the two screws to secure the drive in the
bracket.
