Installing a 5.25-inch drive

1. Unscrew and remove the metal

cover of the bay where you want to

install the 5.25-inch drive, and take

off the plastic cover on the front

bezel at the same position.

2. Insert the drive into the bay and

slide the bay lock to the right until it

clicks in place.

Ensure to unplug the power cable before installing or removing any system

components. Failure to do so may cause damage to the motherboard and other

system components!

The system comes with three 5.25-inch

drive bays located on the upper front

part of the chassis. An optical drive that

comes standard/optional with the system

package occupies the uppermost bay

(labeled 1). The lower bays (labeled 2

and 3) are available for additional 5.25-

inch optical, zip, or floppy disk drives.

You must remove the front panel

assembly before installing a

5.25-inch drive.

SATA connector on the back of the

drive.

4. Connect a power plug from

the power supply to the power

connector on the back of the drive.
