ARDWARE
Your computer allows for easier upgrades and service with a slide-out
system board and tool-less access to most internal components. Quick
release cover latches, located on the sides of the computer, allow easy
removal of the computer cover without the use of tools.
When installing the computer chassis in a drawer, the following
conditions must be met to ensure proper air flow:
I At least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of clear space between the back of the
drawer and anything behind it, such as a wall or the back panel of a
desk.
I At least two 2-inch (5.1-cm) diameter holes in the back of the
drawer. One hole must be immediately behind the power supply for
exhaust air, and the other should be used for routing the cables.
CAUTION: Cables should not be run through the exhaust air hole.
I At least nine holes in the front drawer panel or in the bottom of the
drawer in front of the chassis for fresh air intake. The diameter of
the holes must be between 0.38 and 0.5 inch (1.0 and 1.3 cm).
