208 Adding and Replacing Parts
Note the three scenarios in which a metal shield may be removed and not
immediately replaced:
• If the FlexBay held a third hard-drive (in the tower configuration only)
or was empty (in either configuration) with a vented metal shield in
front of it and you install a floppy drive or Media Card Reader in that
bay, a shield is not needed in that bay.
• If the FlexBay held a Media Card Reader or floppy drive (in the tower
configuration only) and you install a hard drive in its place, a vented
metal shield must be installed in front of the hard drive in the FlexBay.
• If a metal shield is installed in the 5.25-inch drive bay and you install
an optical drive in its place, a shield is not needed in that bay.
In either of the above situations, the metal shield should be kept in case it is
needed later.
If you remove a floppy drive, a Media Card Reader, or an optical drive from
your computer, you will need to install a metal shield in its place. If a metal
shield is not installed in any of these cases, your computer may not function
properly. Contact Dell if you need an extra shield (see "Contacting Dell" on
page 295).
