Components—Front View
Hard drives — A hard drive is very sensitive to shock or mishandling. It is delicate
and must be treated with care when you handle it, because it holds all your files and
data. Handle hard drives according to the manufacturing guide lines. Do not drop or
bang the drive. It is shock-sensitive and electrostatic-sensitive. Do not touch the circuit
board.
Phillips and flathead screwdrivers — Various screws within the
chassis require a Phillips or a flathead screwdriver. Hewlett-Packard
recommends using a magnetic-tipped screwdriver. A flathead
screwdriver can be used with the screw seen here.
The following shows locations of parts from the front, with the doors open. These are
available bays and components; not all drive bays are populated necessarily.
