Installing a 3.5” Internal Hard Disk Drive

Your system comes with an available bay to hold an additional 3.5” IDE
hard disk drive. Some models, such as Configure-to-Order (CTO)
systems, may already have a second hard disk drive.

Your system can support ATA-33, ATA-66, or ATA-100 hard disk drives.
The drive you install must not require front panel access. The hard disk
drive access light blinks when either internal drive is active.

1

Configure the jumpers on the new drive as a slave device (see your
drive’s documentation for configuration instructions).

2

Disconnect the power cord from the computer.

3

Remove the side panel (see

“Removing the Side Panel”

on page 22).

4

Lift the tab adjacent to the drive holder.

!

Before opening the system unit, save and close all open files, exit all open

applications, turn off the power to all attached peripheral devices, shut
down the computer, and unplug the power cord.
