Wrap the hard disk drive in its original packing materials

and set it aside along with the hard disk drive ribbon cable.

Replace the subassembly in the computer, and then replace

the computer’s cover. See Chapter 5 for instructions.

See “Post-installation Setup” in Chapter 6 for instructions

on configuring your computer for use without a hard disk
drive.

Note
After you change your computer’s drive configuration,

your

system may take up to five minutes to complete

power-on

diagnostics the next time you turn it on.

Installing or Removing a Disk Drive in the Horizontal Position

This section describes how to install or remove a hard disk drive
or a diskette drive in the lower horizontal drive bay. You can use

these same instructions if you need to install a different diskette

drive in the upper drive bay; however, the illustrations show the

lower bay.

If you are installing a second hard disk or diskette drive, you

must install it in the lower horizontal drive bay. Your first

diskette drive is in the upper bay and your first hard disk is in

the vertical mounting position.

If you have a hard disk drive installed in the vertical mounting

position, you must remove it before you remove or install a
drive in the horizontal drive bay. This enables you to access

the mounting holes and screws for the horizontal bay. See
“Removing a Hard Disk From the Vertical Position” starting on

page 7-21.
