Installing a Storage Drive

The SCE300 can accommodate up to two fixed 2.5" storage drives of 9.5 mm thickness. They
are installed to a mounting tray inside the chassis.
Note: With some drive configurations, a PCI-E expansion card cannot be installed.
Installing a Storage Drive
The motherboard should be installed before installing the drive. The position of the drive may
be affected by the size of the motherboard.
1. Make sure there is no power to the system as described in section 2.1 and remove the
chassis cover.
2. Remove the screws securing the drive tray to the chassis and lift the tray out.
3. Secure the drive to the tray with the screws provided with drive.
4. Return the drive tray assembly into the chassis, aligning the tabs of the tray with the
slots in the chassis. Secure the tray to the chassis with the screws previously set aside.
5. Attach the cable SATA connector and to the motherboard connector. This cable carries
both the SATA signal and the SATA power.
6. Reinstall the chassis cover and power up the system.
