Apple Power Mac G5 - Manual (Page 20)

Easy Access and Usability
The removable side panel unlatches for fast access to the slots and bays inside the
Power Mac G5. Expansion is simple: For example, you can add or remove the optical
drive or an AirPort Extreme Card without tools. Easy-to-use drive guides are included,
so you can add high-capacity hard drives as your requirements grow. An ingenious
locking mechanism is integrated into the design of the panel latch, giving you a
convenient and elegant way to keep the components inside your computer safe
from tampering.
It’s also easy to connect devices to the Power Mac G5. In addition to ports on the back,
the front panel has FireWire 400 and USB 2.0 ports, as well as a headphone jack. For
even more convenience, handles allow you to lift and move your Power Mac securely.
