the computer.
6. Slide the existing drive out of the drive bay. Remove the drive from the drive
tray by gently pulling both sides of the drive tray outward until the mounting
pins are disengaged from the holes on the drive; then, lift the drive out of the
drive tray.
7. Touch the static-protective package containing the new drive to any unpainted
metal surface on the computer; then, remove the drive from the package and
place it on a static-protective surface.
8. Set any jumpers or switches on the new drive according to the documentation
that comes with the drive.
9. Attach the new drive to the drive tray. Place the drive on the drive tray and
align the holes on the drive with the mounting pins on the drive tray. Gently
pull both sides of the drive tray outward and insert the mounting pins into the
holes on the drive.
10. Slide the drive into the drive bay until the drive snaps into place.
11. Determine whether the drive is a parallel IDE, serial ATA, or SCSI device; then,
connect one end of the appropriate signal cable into the back of the drive and
the other end of this cable into the appropriate parallel IDE, serial ATA, or SCSI
connector on the system board. See "Power and signal cables for internal
drives" for additional information about cabling drives and "System-board
internal connectors" on page 52 for the location of parallel IDE, serial ATA, and
SCSI connectors on the system board. If there are open connectors on the
cables connecting existing parallel IDE, serial ATA, or SCSI drives, these
cables can be used to connect the new drive.
12. Route the signal cable so that it does not block the airflow to the rear of the
drives or over the microprocessor.
13. Connect the power cable to the back of the drive. The connectors are keyed
and can be inserted only one way.
14. Push the drive cage outward, and press in on the drive-cage release tab; then,
rotate the cage back into the computer.
15. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now.
16. Replace the support bracket (see "Removing and installing the support
bracket" on page 54).
17. Replace the side cover (see "Replacing the side cover" on page 68).
18. Reconnect the external cables and power cords; then, turn on the attached
devices and the computer.
Power and signal cables for internal drives
Your computer uses cables to connect parallel IDE, serial ATA, and SCSI devices to
the power supply and to the system board. (See "System-board internal connectors"
