Removing and Replacing Front-Panel
Inserts
Empty 5.25-inch drive bays contain a front-panel insert to protect the inside of the
computer from dust particles and also to ensure proper airflow within the computer.
Before you install a drive in an empty drive bay, you must first remove the front-panel
insert (see Figure 7-8).
To remove the insert covering a drive bay, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect all the AC
power cables from their power sources.
2. Remove the computer cover as instructed in "Removing the Computer Cover,"
earlier in this chapter.
3. Remove the front bezel using the instructions in "Removing and Replacing the
Front Bezel,"earlier in this chapter.
4. With your thumbs, press in on each end of the insert until the insert snaps free of
the bezel.
