Adding hardware options to your NetVista computer is an easy way to increase its
capabilities. Instructions for installing external and internal options are included in
this publication. When adding an option, use these instructions along with the
instructions that come with the option.
This chapter provides a brief introduction to the options and features that are
available for your computer. Also, important information about required tools,
electrical safety, and static-sensitive devices is included.
Important
Before you install any option, read "Safety Information" on page v. These
precautions and guidelines will help you work safely.
See Access IBM for general information about the use, operation, and maintenance
of your computer. Access IBM also contains information to help you solve
problems and get repair service or other technical assistance.
To properly install options, you will need to know the model of your computer.
The best way to identify your computer is by the machine type/model number.
The machine type/model number indicates the various features of the computer,
such as the type of microprocessor and the number of drive bays. You can find this
number on the small label on the front of your computer. An example of the
machine type/model number is 6838-xxx.
