Hard-Disk Drive Installation
To install a hard-disk drive, perform the following steps.
1. Prepare the drive for installation.
NOTICE: Ground yourself by either wearing a wrist grounding strap or by touching an unpainted metal surface on the
computer chassis.
NOTICE: When you unpack the drive, do not set it on a hard surface, which may damage the drive. Instead, set the drive on a
surface such as a foam pad that will sufficiently cushion it.
Check the documentation for the drive to verify that it is configured for your computer system.

documentation that came with the drive for instructions on installing and using the tape drive software.
