Installing a Floppy Drive into the Converted Hard
Drive Bay (Backplane Installed)

The slimline floppy drive conversion kit can only be installed into a
system that is using either the SATA or the SCSI backplane. You will
know if you have one of these backplanes installed if you can install
either hot-swap SATA or hot-swap SCSI drives. The conversion kit must
be installed in the left hard drive bay.
