Removing a Drive From an Externally Accessible
Bay
You may need to remove a drive for service or replacement.
Caution
Before you remove a hard disk drive, make sure you have
backup copies of all your files and programs.
To remove a drive from an externally accessible drive bay,
follow these steps:
1. Disconnect the IDE drive ribbon cable and power supply
cable from the back of the drive. Pull the cable connectors
straight out from the connectors on the drive so you do not
bend the pins. Do not pull on the cables.
2. Remove the two retaining screws securing the drive to the
drive bay. Then grasp the front of the drive and pull it
completely out of the bay.
