Identifying guide screws

When installing drives in the removable media bay, guide screws must be installed so that the drives

align correctly in the drive cage. HP has provided extra guide screws, located behind the side access

panel. Depending on the option, use 5.25 M3 metric screws or HD 6-32 shipping screws. The metric
screws supplied by HP are black.
