Push the release button (1) on the bottom of the stand and pull the back of the stand off (2) the computer.
Lift the stand up and off the computer. Figure 2-21 Removing the stand Connecting a second display The DisplayPort connector on the rear of the computer allows you to connect a second display to the computer. If you are adding a second display that has a DisplayPort connector, then no DisplayPort video adapter is required.
Page 32
If your second display has a DisplayPort connector, connect a DisplayPort cable directly between the DisplayPort connector on the rear of the computer and the DisplayPort connector on the second display. Figure 2-22 Connecting a DisplayPort cable Figure 2-23 Connecting a second display Chapter 2 Hardware repair and upgrade...
Page 33
If your second display does not have a DisplayPort connector, connect a DisplayPort video adapter to the DisplayPort connector of the computer. Then connect a cable (VGA, DVI. or HDMI, depending on your application) between the adapter and a second display. NOTE: When a DisplayPort adaptor is used, the rear port cover cannot be installed unless a DisplayPort extender cable is used in conjunction with the adaptor.
Removing and installing memory The computer comes with double data rate 3 synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR3- SDRAM) small outline dual inline memory modules (SODIMMs). SODIMMs The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with up to two industry-standard SODIMMs.
Populating SODIMM sockets The system will automatically operate in single channel mode, dual channel mode, or flex mode, depending on how the SODIMMs are installed. Refer to the following table to identify the SODIMM channel locations. Table 2-2 Identifying SODIMM locations Location System board label Channel...

Figure 2-32 Removing and replacing a coin cell battery To replace the access panel, set the panel on the back of the computer, slightly above the stand, and slide it down into place.
Replacing drives Replacing a hard disc drive The hard disc drive is located behind the access panel on the lower left side of the computer (when viewed from behind). The drive is housed in a removable cage. One or two 2.5-inch solid state drives (SSDs) or self-encrypting drives (SEDs) may be installed in the computer.
Page 43
Pull the latch next to the lower side of the 2.5-inch hard disc drive cage away from the cage to release it, then slide the cage toward the edge of the chassis and lift it out. Figure 2-35 Removing the 2.5-inch hard disc drive cage If there is a second disc drive in the 2.5-inch cage, disconnect both cables from it.
Installing a 2.5-inch hard disc drive Insert the 2.5-inch hard disc drive into the drive cage. ● To install a primary hard disc drive, insert the drive into the lower position in the drive cage. Be sure to insert the end with the connectors first. NOTE: The primary drive is the lower position in the drive cage.
Page 45
Fasten an upper 2.5-inch hard disc drive securely in place with the four standard screws that shipped with the drive. Position the 2.5-inch drive cage above its final site with the hard disc drive connectors facing toward the center of the chassis. If the drive cage contains a secondary (upper) drive, locate the power and data cables next to the drive cage and connect them to the secondary drive.
To replace the access panel, set the panel on the back of the computer, slightly above the stand, and slide it down into place. Figure 2-39 Replacing the access panel Reconnect the power cord and external devices. Lock any security devices that were disengaged when the access panel was removed.
