Upgrading a Drive
Depending on your computer configuration, you
may have up to four of the following storage drives
in your computer.
■ CD-ROM or CD-RW drive
■ DVD-ROM or DVD+RW/+R drive
■ Hard drive
■ Diskette drive
This section describes the procedure for replacing
or upgrading your storage drives. You will need
a Torx or flathead screwdriver to replace any of
the drives.
CAUTION: Make sure you back up
your personal files on the hard drive to
an external storage device, such as a CD,
before removing the hard drive. Failure to
do so will result in data loss. After replacing
the hard drive, you need to run System
Recovery CDs to load the Compaq factory
installed files. See “Virus Protection” on
page 5–6 for details.
