is partially inserted, release the drivelock release lever and slide the drive completely into the bay
until the drive is secured.
CAUTION Ensure that the optical drive is secure. Failure to do so can cause damage to the drive when
moving the workstation.
2 Connect the power, drive, and audio (if required) cables to the drive and workstation.
NOTE The audio cable is only required for Linux-based systems.
If you are installing more than one optical drive, route the cable as in the following image.
