8.10.3 Optical Drive
✎
An optical drive is a CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-R/RW, or CD-RW/DVD Combo
drive. A removable storage drive is a diskette or Zip drive.
1. If you have locked the Smart Cover Lock, use Computer Setup to unlock the lock
(Section 8.2, “Unlocking the Smart Cover Lock”).
2. Prepare the computer for disassembly (Section 8.1, “Preparation for Disassembly”).
3. Remove the computer cover (Section 8.5, “Computer Cover”).
4. Remove the front bezel (Section 8.6, “Front Bezel”).
✎
If you are adding a drive in a bay that was previously empty, you must remove the corresponding
bezel blank from the front bezel.
5. Install four guide screws in the lower holes on each side of the drive.
✎
Extra guide screws are provided on the chassis basepan, under the front bezel. Hard drives use
#6-32 standard screws. All other drives use M3 metric screws. The HP-supplied metric screws
are black. The HP-supplied standard screws are silver.
