1. Unscrew and remove the metal EMC screening plate which is
across the front of the drive bay.
You no longer need the EMC screening plate but keep it in case
you want to remove the drive in the future.
2. Remove the plastic case front panel.
3. Remove the plastic blanking panel that covers the front of the
drive bay.
4. Fit the drive upgrade into the drive cage by sliding it in from the
front.
5. Align the disk drive with the flat face on the front of the
computer then secure the disk drive in the drive cage using
four screws, two on each side, taking care not to over tighten
them and that they are the correct length.
6. There are several flying lead connectors from the power supply
unit used for connecting additional disk drives, select the large
connector and connect this to the power connector at the rear
of the drive. The connector is polarised to prevent you fitting it
upside down.
7. The drive signal cable will be supplied either in the upgrade or
for a floppy drive upgrade the existing cable supplied in your
computer can be used. Connect up the cable according to the
specific upgrade instructions. The drive is normally marked
and the connectors are polarised to prevent incorrect fitting.
8. Replace the cover and front panel of the computer (see page
44) and reconnect your system as shown on the “Setting Up
Your New Computer “ card.
Specific fitting instructions are provided with all drive
upgrades.
l A CD-ROM drive upgrade or tape backup unit may need extra
software installed in the form of a drivers disk.
l A floppy drive or hard disk drive upgrade may need to be set up
in the CMOS Setup program (see the Systemboard User Manual
for details).
