Caution
Installing or removing a disk drive is a complicated

procedure, so you may want to ask your dealer to do it for you.

If you decide to do it yourself, you must carefully follow all
the instructions in this appendix or you could damage your

equipment.

Using the Correct Drive Bay

The upper horizontal drive bay probably contains the diskette
drive that came with your system. That drive can be one of the
following types:

51/4-inch diskette drive

31/2-inch diskette drive with a 51/4-inch mounting frame

installed on it.

You can install an additional drive of one of the following types

in the lower horizontal drive bay:

51/4-inch diskette drive

31/2-inch diskette drive with a 51/4-inch mounting frame

installed on it

31/2-inch hard disk drive with a pair of 51/4-inch mounting
frames installed on it.

Your computer may have come with a hard disk drive already

installed in the vertical mounting position. If not, you can
install one 3l/2-inch hard disk drive in this position.

If you are installing your first hard disk drive, it is best to install

it in the vertical mounting position. If you add a second hard

disk drive or diskette drive, use the lower horizontal drive bay.
