Internal Drives
The 44P Series Model 170 has six drive bays:
v One 3.5 inch diskette bay
v Two 5.25 inch media bays, for CD-ROM drives, tape drives, or disk drives
v Three 1 inch or two 1.5 inch disk drive bays
A diskette drive and CD-ROM drive are preinstalled in most system units. There is an
optional disk drive carrier, which is necessary to add an optional disk drive in the media
bay.
Checklist for Handling Drives
Consider the following cautions when installing or removing media drives:
v Use caution when handling all disk drives. Disk drives are more likely to be damaged
during installation and service than at any other time. A fall of as little as .25 inch,
bumping, or rough handling can cause latent failures.
v Media drives are particularly sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Follow the
electrostatic handling procedures before handling the media drive. Refer to “Handling
Static-Sensitive Devices” on page 21.
v Refer to the documentation provided with your drive to determine if any drive-specific
procedures must be followed, such as setting switches or jumpers, or attaching the
drive to a carrier tray.
