Replacing the Hard Disk Drive in the Bottom Rear Shelf

You can install either a 3.5-inch or a 5.25-inch hard disk drive in this
shelf.
Handle the hard disk drive with care. Avoid shocks and violent
movement as this can cause damage to the hard disk drive's internal
components.
Make sure that you back up your files before you install a hard disk
drive. Refer to your operating system documentation for information on
how to do this.
1 Turn off the display and computer, and disconnect the power supply
cords and any connection to a telecommunications network.

supply unit (refer to page 29).
3 At the rear of the computer, unlatch the metal plate and remove it.
4 Disconnect the power and data cables from the drive that is
currently installed.
