NOTICE:

To avoid damage to the drive, do not set it on a hard surface. Instead, set the drive on a

surface, such as a foam pad, that will sufficiently cushion it.

1 If you are replacing a hard drive that contains data you want to keep, back up your files before

you begin this procedure.

2 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 63.
3 Remove the computer cover (see page 68).
