Installing a Hard Disk Drive
If you are installing a new hard disk drive, you should create a Hibernate partition on the
drive before loading any software. See "To recover the factory installation of Windows"
on page 118.

To replace the hard disk drive holder

If you are installing a new hard drive that does not have a cover, you can remove the
cover parts from the old hard drive. You'll need a small Phillips screwdriver for this
procedure.
1. Carefully pry the connector off the end of the hard disk drive. Work alternately at
each end so that the connector slides off evenly.
2. Remove the two screws from the case, as shown.
3. Lift the plastic tab and remove the plastic cover and metal sheet from the hard disk
drive. The metal sheet may not be present on some drives.
When you reinstall the connector, make sure the small tabs on the side of the connector
hold the metal sheet.
