Plastic Wire/Cable Fastener and Clips

Two different plastic wire fasteners under the drive cage secure many of the system wires. You have to
loosen these fasteners to gain access to the wires for several computer components. Additionally, many
wires are routed through clips below the drive cage and on the power supply. See the following
illustration for proper routing of these wires.
To loosen the fastener on the chassis floor:
1. Prepare the computer for disassembly
2. Remove the access panel
3. Rotate the drive cage to its upright position.
4. Pull up on the top of the fastener to open it. Opening the fastener may require significant force.
