Installing and Removing Drives

This chapter describes how to install and remove optional
drives in your computer. You can use these instructions to
install a variety of devices, including hard disk drives, a
diskette drive, a tape drive, a CD-ROM drive, or an optical
drive. Although your drive may look different from the ones
illustrated here, you should be able to install it the same way.
Your computer can hold up to seven mass storage devices, as
described in the table below.

The main system board in your computer supports up to
two diskette drives (or one diskette drive and one tape

more than four drives, you must install a drive controller on
an option card, such as a SCSI controller card, for the
additional drive(s).
