Appendix A. CRU instructions Replacing the hard disk drive You can increase the storage capacity of your computer by replacing the hard disk drive with one of greater capacity. You can purchase a new hard disk drive from your reseller or Lenovo marketing representative. Notes: • Replace the hard disk drive only for upgrades or repair. The connectors and bay of the hard disk drive were not designed for frequent changes, or drive swapping. • The preinstalled software are not included on an optional hard disk drive. Handling a hard disk drive • Do not drop the drive or subject it to physical shock. Put the drive on a material, such as soft cloth, that absorbs any physical shock. • Do not apply pressure to the cover of the drive. • Do not touch the connector. The hard disk drive is very sensitive. Incorrect handling can cause damage and permanent loss of data on the hard disk. Before removing the hard disk drive, make a backup copy of all the information on the hard disk, and then turn the computer off. Never remove the hard disk drive while the system is operating or in sleep mode. 32
