Upgrading the Hard Disk Drive


Replacing the original drive with one of larger capacity can increase
the hard drive capacity of your computer. The computer uses a 9.5
mm (height), 2.5-inch Ultra ATA-66 / 100 type hard disk.

Be sure to make a backup copy of all your data before attempting
this operation.



Warning:

Hard drive upgrade is a delicate process. Please observe the following

instructions carefully or have a qualified technician install it for you. Damages due to

mishandling of this procedure are NOT covered by the manufacture’s warranty.



Warning:

Apply care when handling the hard disk.

Do not drop or apply any shock.

Do not press on the cover.

Do not touch the connector with your fingertips.

Mishandling of the hard drive can result in permanent loss of data. Make a

backup copy of the drive s content before you remove it.


Note:

Certain models that come with the IBM-brand hard drive emit a clattering

sound when it is being rattled. This is a normal condition.
