Inserting a drive into a Minitower system

Before you install the drive, you must first prepare the drive (see Preparing the
drive, starting on page 86) and prepare the computer (see Preparing a Minitower
system, starting on page 90).
The CD-ROM drive
In order to install a drive in either of the available 5.25-inch drives in the
Minitower system, it is usually much easier if you first remove the CD-ROM
drive.
However, you may be able to install a small drive that doesn't use removable
media, such as a hard drive, without removing the CD-ROM drive by sliding it
in from the back, angling it down to clear the power supply
If the drive must be front-accessible or has a faceplate which should be visible,
you must remove the CD-ROM drive and install the new drive from the front.
If you don't remove the CD-ROM drive, skip to Front access on page 97.
