Installing and Removing Drives
When installing drives, follow these guidelines:
● The primary Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive must be connected to the dark blue primary SATA
connector on the system board labeled SATA0. If you are adding a second hard drive, connect it
to the light blue connector (8200 Elite models) or the white connector (6200 Pro models) on the
system board labeled SATA1.
● Connect the first SATA optical drive to the white SATA connector on the system board labeled
SATA2. If you are adding a second optical drive connect it to the black SATA connector on the
system board labeled ESATA. If the ESATA connector is already populated, connect the second
optical drive to the light blue connector on the system board labeled SATA1 (8200 Elite models)
or the white connector labeled SATA1 (6200 Pro models).
● Connect an optional eSATA adapter cable to the black SATA connector on the system board
labeled ESATA.
● Connect a media card reader USB cable to the USB connector on the system board labeled
MEDIA.
● The power cable for the SATA optical drives is a two-headed cable this is plugged into the
system board with the first connector routed to the top 5.25-inch bay and the second connector
routed to the bottom 5.25-inch bay.
● The power cable for the SATA hard drives is a two-headed cable this is plugged into the system
board with the first connector routed to the bottom 3.5-inch bay and the second connector routed
to the top 3.5-inch bay.
● The system does not support Parallel ATA (PATA) optical drives or PATA hard drives.
● You must install guide screws to ensure the drive will line up correctly in the drive cage and lock
in place. HP has provided extra guide screws for the drive bays (four 6-32 isolation mounting
guide screws and eight M3 metric guide screws), installed on the side of the drive bays. The
6-32 isolation mounting screws are required for a secondary hard drive. All other drives (except
the primary hard drive) use M3 metric screws. The HP-supplied metric screws are black and the
HP-supplied isolation mounting screws are silver and blue. If you are replacing the primary hard
