Removing and Installing a Hard Drive in the Drive Carrier

NOTE:

If you do not intend to replace the drive, it is highly recommended that you

remove the drive from the guide bracket (see Figure 3-15) and insert the empty
guide bracket back into the drive bay. This eliminates the likelihood that the empty
bracket will be misplaced or improperly stored while not in use.
