Removing A Hard Disk Drive From The Internal Drive Bay; Installing A Drive In The Upper Horizontal Drive Bay - Epson EL 486UC User Manual

Removing a Hard Disk Drive From the Internal
Drive Bay
To remove a hard disk drive, reverse the installation steps
outlined above. Then disconnect the hard disk drive ribbon
cable and the power supply cable from the back of the drive.
When you disconnect the cables, grasp the connectors and pull
them straight out so you do not bend the pins; do not pull on
the cables. Use the screws to again secure the hard disk drive
mounting bracket to the base of the computer.
Installing a Drive in the Upper Horizontal Drive Buy
Your system comes with a 3.5-inch diskette drive installed in
the lower horizontal drive bay. You can also install a diskette
drive, a CD-ROM, a tape drive, or a second hard disk drive in
the upper horizontal drive bay.
If you are installing a tape drive with a standard 5.25-inch
diskette drive connector, you can connect it using the diskette
drive cable that came with your system. If you install a second
hard disk drive in this bay, make sure you purchase the
appropriate cable to connect both drives to the hard disk drive
connector.
Before you install a drive in the upper drive bay, remove the
cover. Once you have the drive installed, replace the cover,
following the instructions in Chapter 3.
