Installing a Device in a Front Access Bay
Removing the Front Access Drive Cage
1 Switch off the display and PC. Disconnect all power cables and any LAN
or telecommunications cables.
2 Remove the PC’s cover and the front bezel (refer to page 24 for
instructions).
3 Remove the retaining screw from the front access cage, and slide it
forwards until it stops.
4 Disconnect the power and data cables from the installed drives.
5 Lift the front access cage upwards and out from the PC. Place the cage
on a table/desk top.
Installing the Device
1 Remove the 5.25-inch plastic filler plate. Use a screwdriver to unclip the
two latches located on the left-hand side of the filler plate, then pivot it
out. Store the filler plate in a safe place for future use
. Take care not to
hurt your fingers when you remove the plate.
2 If the new device has a tray, attach it to the front access cage. Some
devices may require an HP-supplied tray before they can be installed.
The tray is available as an accessory. CD-ROM drives do not require a
tray.
3 Slide the new drive into the shelf. Ensure that the front of the new device
is aligned with the other drive or filler plate. Secure the device in
position using the screws supplied with it.
