See the removal and replacement chapter for replacement instructions. WARNING! This computer contains a lithium battery. There is a risk of fire and chemical burn if the battery is handled improperly. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, dispose of in water or fire, or expose it to temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C). Do not attempt to recharge the battery. NOTE: Do not dispose of batteries, battery packs, and accumulators with general household waste. To forward them to recycling centers or proper disposal, use the public collection system or return them to HP, their authorized partners, or their agents. SATA hard drives The Self Monitoring Analysis and Recording Technology (SMART) ATA drives for the HP Personal Computers have built-in drive failure prediction that warns the user or network administrator of an impending failure or crash of the hard drive. The SMART drive tracks fault prediction and failure indication parameters such as reallocated sector count, spin retry count, and calibration retry count. If the drive determines that a failure is imminent, it generates a fault alert.

Cable management Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer. ● Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink. ● Keep cables clear of sliding or moveable parts to prevent them from being cut or crimped when the parts are moved. ● When folding a flat ribbon cable, never fold to a sharp crease. Sharp creases can damage the wires. ● Do not bend any cable sharply. A sharp bend can break the internal wires. 16 Chapter 3 Routine care, drive guidelines, and disassembly preparation

WARNING!
This computer contains a lithium battery. There is a risk of fire and chemical burn if the battery
is handled improperly. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, dispose of in water or
fire, or expose it to temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C). Do not attempt to recharge the battery.
NOTE:
Do not dispose of batteries, battery packs, and accumulators with general household waste. To
forward them to recycling centers or proper disposal, use the public collection system or return them to HP,
their authorized partners, or their agents.
SATA hard drives
The Self Monitoring Analysis and Recording Technology (SMART) ATA drives for the HP Personal Computers
have built-in drive failure prediction that warns the user or network administrator of an impending failure or
crash of the hard drive.
The SMART drive tracks fault prediction and failure indication parameters such as reallocated sector count,
spin retry count, and calibration retry count. If the drive determines that a failure is imminent, it generates a
fault alert.

Always use an HP-approved SATA 6.0 Gbps cable because it is fully backwards compatible with the SATA 1.5
Gbps drives. Current HP desktop products ship with SATA 6.0 Gbps hard drives.
SATA data cables are susceptible to damage if overflexed. Never crease a SATA data cable and never bend it
tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
The SATA data cable is a thin, seven-pin cable designed to transmit data for only a single drive.
Cable management
Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer.
●
Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink.
●
Keep cables clear of sliding or moveable parts to prevent them from being cut or crimped when the parts
are moved.
●

●
Do not bend any cable sharply. A sharp bend can break the internal wires.
