Removing An Internal Hard Disk Drive - Epson ExpressStation User Manual

Removing an internal hard disk drive

Follow these steps to remove an internal hard disk drive:
1. Position the drive housing so the disk drive riser board faces
upward and the back of the housing faces you.
2. Loosen the screws securing the drive to the housing with a
screwdriver. Then, if you are removing a third-height drive,
support the bottom of the drive as you remove the screws
from the drive housing by hand. Gently lay the hard disk
drive on the base of the housing, if necessary.
3. Hold the drive as you disconnect the power cable and the
drive cable from the back of the drive. (If you are removing
an IDE drive, pull the drive away from the IDE interface.)
You may need to gently rock the drive cable connector back
and forth to disconnect it. Then slide the drive out of the
drive housing.
4. Replace the drive housing and cover as described in
Chapter 2; then follow the "Post-installation Setup
Procedures," below, to update your configuration.
