Peripheral Bay Device

The CD-ROM drive, the floppy disk drive, and (optionally) another EIDE or SCSI device are
located in the peripheral device bay, below the system disk drive. You can remove and replace
any of these devices, and add a device if a bay is open, in the same way.
To add or replace a device in the peripheral device bay:
WARNING
The system is always on when connected to AC power. Before performing this
task, disconnect the system's power cord from its AC power outlet.
WARNING
The CD-ROM drive contains a laser and is classified as a Class 1 Laser
Product. To prevent direct exposure to the laser beam and to avoid hazardous
radiation exposure, do not try to open the CD-ROM drive enclosure. Return the
drive to the manufacturer for repair.
WARNING
Mishandling a disk drive can cause the heads to crash! Subsequent failures
may not be noticeable for three to six months. Handle disk drives carefully to
avoid damage.
1.
Remove the top cover and open the front panel. See Chapter 7, "Gaining Access to System
Components."
2.
For ease of access, remove the rear fan. See "Cooling Fans" in this chapter.
3.
If removing or replacing the floppy disk drive, remove the CD-ROM drive first.
4.
Disconnect the power cable and data cables from the device.
