Front-Panel Inserts
If you are installing a new floppy or CD/DVD drive instead of replacing a drive, remove the front-panel inserts.
1. Open the cover to a 90-degree angle.
2. Locate the insert that is in front of the drive bay that you want to use.
3. From inside the computer, press in the release tab of the insert.
4. From the outside of the computer, pull the insert away from the computer's front panel.
5. If you purchased your floppy drive from Dell, you received a front-panel insert in your floppy drive kit. Proceed to step 7 .
6. If you are installing a CD/DVD drive or a floppy drive that was not purchased from Dell, remove the insert from the insert frame by pressing on the four
tabs.
7. If you purchased your floppy drive from Dell, attach the insert that you received in the floppy drive kit over the front of the drive bay. If you are installing
a CD/DVD drive or floppy drive that was not purchased from Dell, reattach the empty insert frame over the front of the drive bay.
8. To attach either insert, face the front of the computer and slip the left side of the insert into the left side of the drive bay opening. Then, slightly press in
the right-side insert release tab and gently push in the insert.
