Chapter 4
lnstalling and Removing Drives
This chapter describes how to install and remove optional
drives in your computer. You can use these instructions to
install a variety of devices, including hard disk drives, a
diskette drive, a tape drive, or a CD-ROM drive. Although your
drive may look different from the ones illustrated here, you
should be able to install it the same way.
Your computer can hold up to three mass storage devices. You
can install a hard disk drive in the internal hard disk drive bay.
In the upper horizontal bay, you can install a second hard disk
drive (if you have the right cable), a second diskette drive, a
tape drive, or a CD-ROM drive.
To install or remove a drive, first remove the computer's cover
as described in Chapter 3. Then follow the instructions in this
chapter to install and remove drives:
Installing a hard disk drive in the internal drive bay
Removing a hard disk drive from the internal drive bay

If you are installing or removing a non-Epson drive, some of
the steps in this chapter may not apply; see the documentation
