Replacing the optical drive

Attention:
Turn off the computer and wait 3 to 5 minutes to let it cool down before
replacing the optical drive.
To remove the optical drive:
Note: It may be helpful to place the computer face-down on a soft flat surface
for this procedure. Lenovo recommends that you use a blanket, towel, or
other soft cloth to protect the screen from scratches or other damage.

the operating system, and turn off the computer and all attached devices.
2. Unplug all power cords from electrical outlets.
3. Disconnect all cables attached to the computer. This includes power cords,
input/output (I/O) cables, and any other cables that are connected to the
computer. Refer to "Left and right views" and "Rear view" for help with locating
the various connectors.
4. Remove the rubber cap that protects the screw.
5. Remove the screw that secures the optical drive to the chassis.
6. Push the optical drive so that it slides out of the drive bay.
