Installing an External 5.25-inch or 3.5-inch Drive NOTE An optical drive is a CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, DVD-ROM, DVD+R/RW, or CD-RW/DVD Combo drive. The system does not support Parallel ATA (PATA) optical drives. 1. Install the four guide screws (two on each side) that were removed from the old drive into the new drive. The screws help guide the drive into its proper position in the bay. Extra guide screws are provided on the front of the chassis under the front bezel. Figure 2-18 Installing Guide Screws (Optical Drive Shown) NOTE There are a total of eight extra guide screws on the front of the chassis under the bezel. Four have 6-32 standard threads and four have M3 metric threads. Standard screws are used for hard drives and have a silver finish. Metric screws are used for all other drives and have a black finish. Make sure to install the appropriate guide screws into the drive. 2. Slide the drive into the drive bay, making sure to align the guide screws with the guide slots, until the drive snaps into place.
