Internal drive bays: The tower model IntelliStation E Pro tower model comes with

Notes:
1. Diskette drives, tape drives, CD-ROM, and DVD-ROM drives are examples of
removable-media drives. You can install removable-media drives in bays 1, 2, 3,
and 4 only.
2. You can install a 3.5-in. slim-high, or a 5.25-in. half-high removable-media drive,
such as a tape backup drive, in bay 2.
3. You can only install a 3.5-in. slim-high removable-media drive in bay 4.
4. The IntelliStation E Pro computer supports only one diskette drive.
5. To install a 3.5-in. drive in a 5.25-in. bay, you must use a 5.25 in. conversion kit,
supplied with your option.
6. The electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and cooling of the computer are
protected by having all bays and PCI slots covered or occupied. When you install
a drive or PCI adapter, save the EMC shield and filler panel from the bay or the
PCI adapter slot cover in the event you later remove the option.
