Chapter 6

Installing and Removing Drives

The instructions in this chapter describe how to install and

remove optional Epson drives in your computer. You can use

these instructions to install a variety of devices, including

diskette drives, hard disk drives, and tape drives. Even if your

drive looks a bit different from the one illustrated here, you

install it the same way.

If you are installing or removing a non-Epson drive, you can

follow these instructions, although some of the steps in this

chapter may not apply. See the manual that came with your

drive for more information.

This chapter describes how to do the following:

Use the correct drive bay

Set the IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) jumpers on a

hard disk drive

Install or remove a drive in the external drive bay

Install or remove an internal drive.

Before you perform any of the procedures described below,

remove the computer’s cover as described in Chapter 4. You

may also need to remove the front panel and subassembly; the

instructions in this chapter tell you when this is necessary.
