Caution - The hard disk drive contains electronic components that are extremely
sensitive to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static from your clothes or work
environment can destroy the components.
Wear a grounding strap when handling the drive. Refer to “Attaching the Wrist
Strap” on page 34 in Chapter 4. Do not touch the components or any metal parts.
1. Turn the power switch off (O) position.
2. Make sure that the green LED at the front of the chassis is not lit.
3. Make sure that the power cord remains connected to the computer system and
to the wall outlet or power strip.
4. Remove the system unit cover.
Refer to “Removing the System Unit Cover” on page 32 in Chapter 4.
Caution - Hot surfaces are present. Use care when opening the system chassis or
handling components.
5. Attach the wrist strap.
Refer to “Attaching the Wrist Strap” on page 34 in Chapter 4.
6. Determine which drive you need to remove.
Drive 0 is mounted toward the center of the chassis, and drive 1 is mounted next
to it. If the system has one hard disk drive, it should be mounted toward the
center of the chassis (drive 0). See Figure 12–1.
