Adding Other Drives
Your computer includes a floppy drive and either a CD or DVD drive. You
can add drives, such as Zip drives and CD-RW drives, using the procedures
in the following sections.
5.25-Inch Devices
HINT: You need
additional hardware, such
as a mounting kit, to
install a 3.5-inch drive in
a 5.25-inch bay.
CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section,
follow the safety instructions on page 7.
NOTICE: To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your
computer and then unplug it from the network jack.
1 Turn off the computer and devices, and disconnect them from their
electrical outlets.
2 Briefly press the power button.
Pressing the power button when the computer is not connected to an
electrical outlet discharges residual electricity and can help prevent
system board damage.
3 Remove the computer cover (see page 42).
4 Press in the tabs, and swing the front panel away from the computer.
