After you log on to this equipment, there will always be an icon in the notification area of
the taskbar to display the hardware status. If you double-click this icon or if you right-

NOTE
• This window only displays the internal drives that are recognized during OS
startup. If you connect a new drive or replace a drive with a new drive, for
example, for maintenance, it may take a long time to recognize the new drive
at the first startup after the new drive is connected, and the information about
the drive may not be displayed. If this situation happens, restart this

For information about how to replace a perishable component, refer to "HF-
