Installing/removing 5 1/4" drive bay component
A single 5 1/4" IDE drive bay is located in the front of the chassis, making
it easily accessible for installation and removal. This component is not
hot-swappable, meaning system power must be turned off before
installing and/or removing them. To remove the drive carrier, first power
down the system and then remove the top cover of the chassis. Un-
screw the retention screw at the top center of the drive, then push the
drive carrier out from the back until you can grasp and pull it out through
the front of the chassis. Attach the component to the carrier if installing.
Then reverse the drive carrier removal procedure to install the drive,
making sure you screw in the retention screw. Replace the top cover
when finished.

push the cover away from you until it stops. You can then lift the top
cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.

IDE components.
Drives mount on rails and should "click" into place to be correctly and
fully installed in their bays.
