Module Bay

 

Module Bay

 

You can install a Dell™ removable device such as a floppy drive, optical drive, or second hard drive in the module bay. You can also install an airbay (filler blank)
in the bay if you do not plan to install a drive.

Your Dell computer ships with either an optical drive or an airbay (filler blank) installed in the module bay. The airbay is held in the module bay with a security
screw only. You can secure a optical drive in the module bay using two methods:

l

 

Locking switch (accessed by removing the computer cover)

l

 

Security screw (packaged separately)

See

Securing a Device in the Module Bay

for more information about securing a device in your computer.

 

Installing a Device When Your Computer Is Turned Off

To install a device in the module bay:

 

1.

Remove any installed device from the bay. If the module bay contains an airbay, remove the security screw and pull the airbay out of the module bay
and skip to

2.

If the module bay contains a device that is locked with the locking switch, remove the cover (see
