2.5 The Hard Disk Drive
Your computer is equipped with a 2.5-inch IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics)
hard disk drive. The hard disk drive is a storage device with much higher speed
and larger capacity than other storage devices, such as the floppy disk drive
and optical storage devices. Therefore, it is usually used to install the operating
system and software applications.
The hard disk drive is a non-removable storage device in your computer.
However, you can upgrade it by replacing a lager capacity hard disk drive. To
do so, please refer to Upgrading Your System in Chapter 6.
1.
To avoid unexpected data loss in your system, please
backup your critical files regularly.
2.
Do not turn off the computer when the Hard Disk In-use
LED is on.
3.
Do not remove or install the hard disk drive when the
computer is turned on. The replacement of hard disk
drive should be done by an authorized retailer or
service representative.
