Upgrading the Hard Drive
Depending on your computer model, the primary hard drive can
be upgraded to a larger capacity. Contact your Compaq
authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider for the optional
hard drives available for your computer.
Removing and Inserting the Primary Hard Drive
1. Remove the security screw.
2. Slide the hard drive latch forward to open the hard drive
compartment.
3. Remove the hard drive cover.
4. Pull the hard drive tab connected to the drive and remove the
hard drive from the compartment.
5. Slide the hard drive into the hard drive compartment. Be sure
that the tab connected to the hard drive faces away from the
computer.
6. Reinstall the hard drive cover.
7. Reinsert the security screw.
Attaching a Hard Drive Adapter
If using your old primary drive in the MultiBay, you need to
attach a hard drive adapter. Refer to the installation instructions
that came with the hard drive adapter kit. Refer to Chapter 6 to
change the startup sequence with MultiBoot.
Adding an Internal Modem
If your computer does not include an internal modem, it can be
easily installed. Contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller,
or service provider to place an order or for additional information.
