If you are replacing a drive and the the new drive does not have the bracket rails

attached, remove the rails from the old drive by removing the two screws that secure

each rail to the drive. Attach the bracket to the new drive by aligning the screw holes

on the drive with the screw holes on the bracket rails and then inserting and tightening

all four screws (two screws on each rail). See the diagram on page 98.

Gently slide the drive into place until the tabs securely click into position.
