Installing a Hard Drive into a Drive Carrier
1. Remove the dummy drive, which comes pre-installed in the drive carrier, by
removing the screws securing the dummy drive to the carrier. Note that these
screws cannot be reused on the actual 2.5" hard drive.
2. Insert a drive into the carrier with the PCB side facing down and the
connector end toward the rear of the carrier.
3. Align the drive in the carrier so that the screw holes of both line up.
4. Secure the drive to the carrier with four screws. These screws are included in
the chassis accessory box.
5. Insert the drive carrier into its bay, keeping the carrier oriented so that the
release button is on the bottom side. When the carrier reaches the rear of the
bay, the release handle will retract.
6. Push the handle in until it clicks into its locked position.
