Adding and Replacing Parts

Installing an Optional Third Hard Drive (Desktop Computer)

CAUTION:

For configurations with three SAS hard drives, you must install an

additional fan (see "Installing an Additional Fan" on page 210).

1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 143.
2 Remove the computer cover (see "Removing the Computer Cover" on

page 145).

3 If you are installing a new drive, unpack the drive and prepare it for

installation.

Check the documentation for the drive to verify that it is configured for
your computer.

4 If you are installing a new drive, remove the drive panel (see "Removing the

Drive Panel (Desktop Computer)" on page 215) and the drive-panel insert
(see "Removing a Drive-Panel Insert" on page 218) from the lower
5.25-inch drive bay.

If you already have a drive installed in the lower 5.25-inch drive bay, remove
the optical or hard drive.

5 Place the hard drive in the hard-drive bracket and press the drive down

until it snaps securely into place.

6 Slide the hard drive in the hard-drive bracket into the hard-drive holder.
