Installing and removing drives When installing drives, follow these guidelines: ● The primary Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive must be connected to the dark blue primary SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA0. ● Connect secondary hard drives and optical drives to any of the light blue SATA connectors on the system board (labeled SATA1, SATA2, and SATA3). ● Connect a media card reader USB 3.0 cable with a USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 adapter to the USB 2.0 connector on the system board labeled MEDIA. ● The power cable for the drives has two branches coming off the system board connector. The first branch is a three-headed cable with the first connector routed to the 5.25-inch bay, the second connector routed to the 3.5-inch bay, and the third (two-wire) connector routed to the slim optical drive bay. The second branch is a three-headed cable with the first connector routed to the bottom 2.5-inch hard drive bay, the second connector routed to the middle 3.5-inch hard drive bay, and the third connector routed to the top 3.5-inch hard drive bay. ● You must install guide screws to ensure the drive will line up correctly in the drive cage and lock in place. HP has provided extra guide screws (four 6-32 silver and blue isolation mounting guide screws and four silver 6-32 standard guide screws) installed on the side of the drive bays. The 6-32 isolation mounting screws are required for 3.5-inch hard drives installed in the 3.5-inch hard drive bays. The 6-32 standard guide screws are required for a USB 3.0 media card reader installed in the 3.5-inch optional drive bay. M3 metric guide screws for 5.25-inch optical drives and M3 isolation mounting guide screws for 2.5-inch hard drives are not provided. If you are replacing a drive, remove the guide screws from the old drive and install them in the new drive.
