Installing a Hot-Swap Hard Drive Into a Drive Carrier

1 Insert the hard drive into the hard-drive carrier with the connector end

of the drive at the rear. See Figure 3-9.

NOTE:

For a 2.5-inch hard-drive, secure the hard drive into an insert and then

slide in into the drive carrier.

2 Align the screw holes on the hard drive with the back set of holes on the

hard-drive carrier.

When aligned correctly, the back of the hard drive will be flush with the
back of the hard-drive carrier.

3 Attach the screws to secure the hard drive to the hard-drive carrier.
