Installing a Hard Drive

NOTE: SATA2_0 is the bootable connector.
1. Unpack the replacement hard drive, and prepare it for installation.
2. Check the documentation for the drive to verify that it is configured for your computer.
3. If your replacement hard drive does not have the bracket rails attached, remove the rails from the old drive by
removing the two screws that secure each rail to the drive. Attach the bracket rails to the new drive by aligning the
screw holes on the drive with the screw holes on the bracket rails and then inserting and tightening all four screws (two
screws on each rail).
1 drive
2 bracket rails (2)
3 screws (4)
4. Gently slide the drive into place until the tabs securely click into position.
NOTE: If you are installing a hard drive in the lower bay, the drive should be placed in the bay so that the power
connector is on the left-hand side (opposite of the top hard drive).
