Hardware Security
A screwdriver, two tamper-resistant screws for the memory
compartment cover, and a tamper-resistant hard drive security
plate are supplied with the computer. The tamper-resistant Torx
screw heads have an additional post in the middle, which the
supplied screwdriver fits.
You will need a Torx T-8 screwdriver to remove the factory-
installed memory compartment screws and/or hard drive security
plate.
Hard Drive Security Plate
The tamper-resistant hard drive security plate supplied with the
computer secures the hard drive in the hard drive bay and helps
prevent unauthorized removal of the hard drive.
To install the tamper-resistant hard drive security plate:
1. Shut down the computer and turn it upside down.
2. Use a Torx T-8 screwdriver to remove the factory-installed
hard drive security plate from the bottom of the computer near
the hard drive bay.
3. Place the removed security plate in a safe location.
4. Insert the tamper-resistant security plate and tighten the screw
with the supplied screwdriver.
