Removing and installing the support bracket
When working with some options, such as hard disk drives and memory modules,
you must first remove the support bracket to access the option.
To remove the support bracket, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information beginning on page v and the guidelines in
"Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 11.
2. Turn off the computer and all attached devices (see "Turning off the computer"
on page 42); then, disconnect all power cords and external cables.
3. Remove the side cover (see "Removing the cover" on page 16).
4. Pull out on the rear end of the support bracket approximately 150 mm (6 in.).
5. Disengage the front end of the support bracket from the computer and set the
bracket aside.
6. Continue with the option installation or removal procedure.
To reinstall the support bracket, reverse the previous steps.
