CAUTION: All removable media should be taken out of a drive before removing the drive from the computer.
1. Prepare the computer for disassembly (Preparation for disassembly on page 19).
2. Remove the access panel (Access panel on page 20).
3. Install four silver 6-32 mounting screws on the sides of the drive (two on each side).
NOTE: HP has supplied four extra silver 6-32 mounting screws installed on the chassis next to the
primary 3.5-inch hard drive bay. Refer to Drives on page 33 for an illustration of the location of the extra
mounting screws.
When replacing a drive, transfer the four mounting screws from the old drive to the new drive.
