Replacing storage devices

The system supports one 3.5-inch and three 5.25-inch internal storage
devices. The system comes pre-installed with a floppy drive and a
CD-ROM drive. The two empty 5.25-inch drive bays allow you to install
additional drives such as another CD-ROM drive or a tape drive. These
provide the system with additional storage capacity.
