Removable Mass-Storage Drives

You can install removable-mass storage drive modules such as a CD-ROM drive or SuperDisk drive in the
modular bay.

NOTICE: Follow these precautions when using your drive:

Protect the drives when they are not in the modular bay. Do not squeeze the drive

or place objects on top of it; doing so could damage the drive motor. Keep the

drive as clean as possible.

Do not use the drive while the computer is in motion. Doing so could interrupt the

flow of data between the disc and the hard-disk drive or diskette drive.

For instructions on installing a removable mass-storage drive module in the modular bay, see "

NOTE: If the computer is docked, turn off the computer and undock it before installing or removing a
drive.

lens.
