If not all bays will be filled with drives, keep the fillers in the empty trays to protect them. To mount a hard drive in a tray, remove the two rear screws holding the filler (1).

Swing the latch to the left to eject the tray, then pull outwards on the latch to begin sliding the tray out. Grip the top and bottom of the tray and gently remove it.
