Installing a Hard Drive

 
1. Check the documentation for the drive to verify that it is configured for your computer.
NOTICE:
To avoid damage to the drive, do not set it on a hard surface. Instead, set the drive on a surface, such as a foam pad, that will sufficiently
cushion it.
 
2. Unpack the replacement hard drive, and prepare it for installation.
 
3. If your replacement hard drive does not have the plastic hard-drive bracket attached, remove the bracket from the existing drive by unsnapping it from
the drive.
1 hard drive
2 release tabs (2)
3 plastic hard-drive bracket
 
4. Attach the bracket to the new drive by snapping it onto the drive.

5. Connect the power and hard-drive cables to the drive.
 
6. Locate the correct slot for the drive, and slide the drive into the bay until it clicks into place.
