Remove the drive from the drive bay and store in anti-static packaging. Installing Additional Drives The computer supports up to five drives which may be installed in various configurations. When installing additional drives, follow these guidelines: For optimal performance, connect hard drives to the primary controller. Connect expansion devices, such as CD-ROM, IDE tape, and diskette drives to the secondary controller. You may install either a third-height or a half-height drive into a half-height bay. You must install guide screws to ensure the drive will line up correctly in the drive cage. Compaq has provided extra guide screws, installed in the front of the computer chassis, behind the front bezel. The Compaq-supplied metric screws are black. 2-14 Hardware Reference Guide Hardware Upgrades CAUTION: To prevent loss of work and damage to the computer or drive: If you are inserting or removing a hard drive, shut down the operating system properly, then turn off the computer. Lift up on the power switch bracket, then rotate down to gain access to the drive bay. Removing the Power Switch Bracket 4. Insert the hard drive into the bay from the front of the chassis.

Hardware Reference Guide A-3 Specifications A-4 Hardware Reference Guide B Hard Drive Installation Guidelines Using the Cable-Select Feature with Ultra ATA Devices Optional drives are available from Compaq in kits that include a special drive cable. The configuration of the drive employs a cableselect feature that identifies the drive as device 0 (primary drive) or device 1 (secondary drive). Device 1 is the drive connected to the cable's middle connector. [. . . ] Do not place the keyboard, with the keyboard feet down, directly against the front of the desktop unit as this also restricts airflow. Keep the computer away from excessive moisture, direct sunlight, and extremes of heat and cold. For information about the recommended temperature and humidity ranges for your computer, refer to Appendix A, "Specifications, " in this guide. Keep liquids away from the computer and keyboard.
