panels from the bay, in case you later remove the 3-Pack Ultra320 Hot-Swap
Expansion option and do not replace it with another device.

filler panels for future use.
5. Remove the custom metal slide rails and screws that are inside the 5.25-inch
removable-media drive bays. Store the slide rails and screws for future use.
6. Align the 3-Pack Ultra320 Hot-Swap Expansion option with the empty
removable-media bay opening, adjacent to the standard hot-swap hard disk
drive backplane.
7. Partially slide the 3-Pack Ultra320 Hot-Swap Expansion option into the guides
through the front of the removable-media bay opening, as shown in the
