Installing a hard drive
NOTE: Your computer may look slightly different from the illustration in this section.
To install the hard drive:
1. Insert the hard drive into the hard drive bay at an angle (1), and then lay the hard drive flat in the
hard drive bay (2).
2. Pull the plastic tab (3) towards the center of the computer to engage the hard drive with the
connector.
3. Tighten the hard drive screws (4).
4. Insert the battery (see Inserting a battery on page 33 ).
5. Replace the service door (see Replacing the service door on page 41 ).
6. Connect AC power and external devices to the computer.
7. Turn on the computer.
Using HP 3D DriveGuard
HP 3D DriveGuard protects a hard drive by parking the drive and halting data requests under either of
the following conditions:
● You drop the computer.
● You move the computer with the display closed while the computer is running on battery power.
A short time after the end of one of these events, HP 3D DriveGuard returns the hard drive to normal
operation.
NOTE: Because solid-state drives (SSDs) lack moving parts, HP 3D DriveGuard is unnecessary.
