To install a hard drive, reverse the above procedure.
The replacement hard drive kit includes several data cables. Make sure to use the cable that is exactly the same as the factory-
NOTE:
installed cable. If the system has only one SATA hard drive, the data cable must be connected to the dark blue connector labeled
SATA0 first to avoid any hard drive performance problems. When replacing the hard drive, transfer the four screws from the old drive
to the new one. The screws take the place of drive rails. You will need a Torx T-15 screwdriver to remove and re-install the guide
screws. HP has provided four extra 6-32 standard guide screws on the front of the chassis, under the computer cover. The 6-32
standard guide screws are silver and are used only for the hard drive. If you replaced the primary hard drive, insert the Restore Plus!
CD to restore the operating system, software drivers, and any software applications that were preinstalled on the computer. Follow
the instructions in the guide included with the Restore Plus! CD. When the restore process has completed, reinstall any personal files
that you backed up before replacing the hard drive.
