30 Maintaining and Troubleshooting Your E-3200 System

Remove the rails on both sides of the drive, and snap them onto the

new drive in the same positions. Make sure the front rail extensions

are towards the front of the drive.

Align the rails with the appropriate bay, and slide the drive into the bay

until the locking tabs snap into place.

Connect the power and data cables, making sure the cables match their

original position. (See drive documentation for proper drive jumper

settings and cable orientation.)

Close the case, as described in Chapter 1.

10.

Reconnect the power cord and turn on the system.

Installing an additional 3.5-inch device

The second 3.5-inch drive bay can be used to install a 3.5-inch device, such

as a tape drive or 100MB or 120MB disk storage device. A set of rails are

included with your system and are used during the installation. You will

have to purchase an IDE cable with three connectors and of sufficient

length to connect the existing hard drive and the new drive to the riser card

IDE connector.

Important!

The rails on the 3.5-inch

drive are different from

those on the CD-ROM

drive. Make sure you install

the correct rails on each

drive.
