Installing and removing storage
devices
Your system supports one 3.5-inch and five 5.25-inch internal storage
devices. The empty drive bays allow you to install additional drives
such as a CD-ROM drive, a digital audio tape (DAT) drive or another
hard disk drive. These would provide your system additional storage
capacity.
Note: Your basic system already comes pre-installed with a
CD-ROM drive and a 3.5-inch floppy drive.

Replacing the 3.5-inch floppy drive
