Removing a Floppy Drive

1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 21.
2 Remove the computer cover (see "Removing the Computer Cover" on page 90).
NOTE:
Since the following steps do not require the complete removal of the optical drive, it is not necessary
to disconnect the cables connecting the optical drive.
3 Remove the optical drive (if one exists) and carefully set it aside (see "Removing an Optical Drive" on
page 131).
NOTICE:
Do not pull the drive out of the computer by the drive cables. Doing so may cause damage to cables and
the cable connectors.
4 Pull up on the drive-release latch and slide the floppy drive the back of the computer. Then, lift up to
remove the drive from the computer.
5 Disconnect the power and data cables from the back of the floppy drive.
