2.4 Installing optional drives

The AWS-8248 provides space for three disk drives underneath the work
drawer. That is, one floppy disk drive, one hard disk drive and one slim
CD-ROM drive. If you wish, you can add an extra hard disk drive and an
extra slim CD-ROM drive above the power supply. (See Figs. 2-1 and 2-
3.)

1.

Remove the six screws at the rear of the work drawer and pull
down the power supply assembly using the handle. You will find a
drive bay for fixing an HDD and a slim CD-ROM drive.

2.

Detach the four screws from the drive bay, and slide out the two
drive-support brackets.

3.

Attach the HDD by fixing it to the drive support brackets with the
six screws.

4.

Add the optional CD-ROM (CDR-825-0024) over the HDD, and
tighten it with the six screws.

5.

Slide the assembled HDD and CD-ROM drive into the drive bay.

6.

Attach a 40-pin ribbon cable with two connectors; one being a
power connector to the HDD, and the other being a power connec-
tor to the CD-ROM.

7.

Secure the drive in the drive bay with the screws, and attach this
assembly to the work drawer.
