Installing a CD/DVD Drive

1.

 

Unpack the drive and prepare it for installation.

 

Check the documentation that accompanied the drive to verify that the drive is configured for your computer. If you are installing an IDE drive, configure
the drive for the cable select setting.

2.

 

If the replacement drive does not have the bracket rails attached, remove the rails from the old drive by removing the two screws that secure each rail

to the drive. Attach the bracket to the new drive by aligning the screw holes on the drive with the screw holes on the bracket rails and then inserting
and tightening all four screws (two screws on each rail).
