Removing and Replacing the Primary 3.5-inch Internal SATA Hard Drive

NOTE: The system does not support Parallel ATA (PATA) hard drives.
Before you remove the old hard drive, be sure to back up the data from the old hard drive so that you
can transfer the data to the new hard drive. Also, if you are replacing the primary hard drive, make sure
you have created a Recovery Disc Set to restore the operating system, software drivers, and any
software applications that were preinstalled on the computer. If you do not have this CD set, select
Start > HP Backup and Recovery and create it now.
The preinstalled 3.5-inch hard drive is located under the power supply. To remove and replace the hard
drive:
1. Prepare the computer for disassembly
2. Remove the access panel
3. Rotate the drive cage for external drives to its upright position.
