and peripherals.

2 Note the order of the hard drives in your system and remove all hard drive carriers and drive blanks

from the drive bays.

NOTE:

It is not necessary to remove any devices installed in the peripheral bay.

The system may weigh up to 45 kilograms (100 pounds) when fully loaded. To prevent personal injury,

do not attempt to move the system by yourself.

the edge of the table.
