After removing the defective drive, the drive mounting brackets on both sides of the
drive must be removed from the drive, since these will be used for mounting the
replacement-drive. The drive mounting brackets are fastened with two screws each.
The replacement drive comes with a front bezel which is snapped onto the front of
the drive. Remove the front bezel and keep it for use when returning the defective
drive. When fastening the drive mounting brackets to the replacement drive, have the
drive and the brackets laying on a level surface to ensure the brackets are aligned
with the bottom of the drive. Fasten the brackets with two screws each.
Insert the replacement drive carefully into the loader the same way it was removed,
reconnect the 3 cables (the ADI cable is mounted closest towards the SCSI cable)
and re-mount the back plate.
