To remove the hard-disk drive, follow these steps:

Disconnect the DC power cable and the interface cable from the back of
the drive.

2. Loosen the captive screw that secures the hard-disk drive bracket to the

chassis.

3. Pivot the hard-disk drive assembly up and lift it out of the chassis.

4. Remove the four hard-disk drive mounting screws that attach the hard-disk

drive to the hard-disk drive bracket.

When you reinstall the hard-disk drive assembly, be sure that the tabs on the
back of the mounting plate fully engage the notches on the chassis—before
you rotate the assembly into place.
