The system can be configured to support different hard drive and peripheral configurations. The
peripheral/hard drive sub-system consists of a drive bay, supporting a slim-line IDE optical drive,

Slimline IDE Optical Drive Bay

The system provides a slim-line drive bay that is designed to support a single slim-line IDE
optical drive. A plastic guide is attached to the slim-line drive to provide blind mated tool-less
installation of the device, for easy installation into and removal from the chassis. Once inserted
into the drive bay, the assembly locks into place. For removal, the chassis top cover must be
removed and the locking latch disengaged.
