Installing Components in the 5.25"/3.5" Drive Bays

1. Drive bay confi guration
The 4021M-32R has two 5.25" and one 3.5" drive bays. Components such as an
extra fl oppy drive, IDE hard drives or CD-ROM drives can be installed into these
5.25" drive bays.
2. Mounting components in the drive bays
First power down the system and then remove the top/left chassis cover to access
the drive bays. With the cover off, remove the two or four screws that secure the
drive carrier to the chassis (one side only) then push the entire empty drive carrier
out from the back.
Adding a CD-ROM drive: remove the guide plates (one on each side) from the empty
drive carrier and screw them into both sides of the CD-ROM drive using the holes
provided. Then slide the CD-ROM into the bay and secure it to the chassis with
the drive carrier screws you fi rst removed. Attach the power and data cables to the
drive. Replace the top/left chassis cover before restoring power to the system.
Adding an IDE or fl oppy drive: to add one of these drives, install it into one of the
removed empty drive carriers with the printed circuit board side toward the carrier
so that the drive's mounting holes align with those in the carrier. Secure the drive
to the carrier with four screws then slide the assembly into the bay and secure it to
the chassis with the drive carrier screws you fi rst removed. Attach the power and
data cables to the drive. Replace the top/left chassis cover before restoring power
to the system.
Note: A red wire typically designates the location of pin 1. You should keep the
drive carriers inserted in any unused drive bays to reduce EMI and noise and to
facilitate the airfl ow inside the chassis.
