Installing a Tool-less" 2.5" Hard Drive
1. Place the empty hard drive carrier on a flat surface.
2. Retract the blue clips on the side of the carrier.
3. Insert a 2.5" hard drive at an angle into the carrier so that the mounting screw holes on
the right side of the drive align with two stubs in the drive carrier. Insert this side into the
drive carrier first, then push the other side into the drive carrier completely.
4. Push the blue clips back in to secure the drive. The drive should now be snug and
secure in the drive tray. However as an option, a screw (included with the hard drive)
may be installed underneath.
5. Use the open handle of the drive carrier to insert the drive carrier into the open drive
bay. Secure the drive carrier into the drive bay by closing the drive carrier handle.
