Changing modules
Your convertible notebook’s modular bay supports different bay modules, such
as a CD, DVD, combination DVD/CD-RW, or multi-format DVD±RW drive, or
multibay battery.
To change bay modules:
1 If you are removing a drive, make sure that there is no disc in it.
2 Turn off your convertible notebook (do not place it in Standby or
Hibernate mode).
3 Make sure the LCD panel is in notebook mode, then close the LCD panel.
4 Disconnect your convertible notebook from the optional port replicator.
5 Turn your convertible notebook over so the bottom is facing up.
6 Remove the modular bay lock screw (if one is present), then slide and hold
the module bay latch. The module may move out slightly.
