Installing an Internal Tape Drive
Installing the Tape Drive in the Bay
4 Secure the tape drive in the bay.


Position the drive so its face plate is aligned with the front of the computer. Other
installed devices should give you an idea of positioning.


Align the screw holes in the drive's mounting hardware with the holes in the drive
bay. Depending on your computer, the screws may go in on the front of the bay or
through the sides of the chassis. (See figure 2.9 or figure 2.10.)


Fix the drive into place with screws.
