Changing Slim Select Bay modules

This section explains how to change modules in the Slim Select Bay. The illustra-
tions show replacement of the DVD-ROM drive with the Slim Select Bay HDD
adaptor. Therefore, the text refers to those modules. However, the procedures are
the same for any of the modules: DVD-ROM drive, CD-ROM drive, CD-R/RW drive,
CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive or optional Slim Select Bay 2nd battery pack with separate
tray.

CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not put your hand into the Slim Select
Bay slot.

Removing a module

Remove the DVD-ROM drive as described below.

1.

Check all disk indicators to make sure no disks are operating.

2.

Turn the computer upside down.

CAUTION: Wait for all disk indicators to go out before you turn over the
computer and be careful to lay the computer down gently. Shock can
damage the HDD or other components.

3.

Be sure the screw of the Slim Select Bay lock is set in the front hole, which is
the unlock position.

4.

Slide the Slim Select Bay latch to the unlock position.

5.

Grasp the DVD-ROM drive and slide it out.

CAUTION: The DVD-ROM drive and other Slim Select Bay modules can
become hot with use. Be careful when removing the module.
