Installing an IDE CD-ROM or Tape Drive
NOTE: These procedures can also be used for installing a SCSI device. For
more information, refer to the documentation that came with the SCSI device
option kit.
1.
Turn off the workstation and any external devices. Disconnect the
power cord from the grounded AC outlet. Disconnect the network
cable and any external devices from the system. Then remove the
workstation access panel.
IMPORTANT: On a power-managed system, the power cord MUST be
disconnected from the grounded AC outlet.
2.
Install two guide screws on each side of the drive. If there are multiple
screw holes on the sides of the drives, use the lower set of holes.
NOTE: Some options use M3 metric hardware, such as in the 5.25-inch, one-
half height external bay. Extra guide screws are provided on the front of the
chassis, under the front bezel. The Compaq-supplied metric screws are black.
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic
components of the workstation or optional equipment. Before
beginning these procedures, ensure that you are discharged of
static electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal object. See
Appendix B for more information.
