Inserting a Drive
Important: To avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) problems, ground yourself by
touching metal before handling the device.
Preparing a Drive
For WD replacement drives, reuse the screws and tabs attached to the faulty drive.
Note: A standard phillips-head screwdriver is all you need.
1. Using the parts from the faulty drive, attach a plastic tab to the top hole in the drive's side
(on the right if the green board is facing you).
2. Attach a screw to the corresponding hole on the other side of the drive.
3. Attach label 1 or 2 to the top of the drive. Label 1 is on the left and label 2 is on the right,
when looking down on the top of the unit. There are corresponding numbers on the
cross brace label.
