To Replace The Hard Disk Drive Holder; To Prepare A New Hard Disk Drive - HP Pavilion XF315 Reference Manual

To replace the hard disk drive holder

If you are installing a new hard drive that does not have a holder, you can remove the
holder from the old hard drive. You'll need a small (#0) Phillips screwdriver for this
procedure.
1. Remove all four screws from the holder and drive case, then remove the drive from
the holder.
2. Insert the drive into the holder, then reinstall all four screws into the holder and drive
case.

To prepare a new hard disk drive

When you install a new hard disk drive, you must prepare it to work with your notebook
by installing the Windows software and operating system that were originally installed on
your notebook. Do this using the Recovery CDs that came with your notebook—see "To
recover the factory installation of your hard disk" on page 104.
