Installing and Removing Drives
When installing additional drives, follow these guidelines:
NOTE: Refer to System Board Connections on page 42 for an illustration of the system board drive
connectors.
The primary Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive must be connected to the dark blue primary SATA
connector on the system board labeled SATA0.
Connect a SATA optical drive to the white SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA1.
Connect a media card reader USB cable to the USB connector on the system board labeled
MEDIA1.
The power cable for the SATA drives is a three-headed cable that is plugged into the system
board with the first connector routed to the rear of the hard drive, the second connector routed to
the rear of the 3.5” drive, and the third connector routed to the rear of the 5.25” optical drive.
The system does not support Parallel ATA (PATA) optical drives or PATA hard drives.
You must install mounting screws to ensure the drive will line up correctly in the drive cage and
lock in place. HP has provided extra mounting screws for the internal drive bays (five 6-32
standard screws and four M3 metric screws), installed in the front of the chassis, under the front
bezel. The 6-32 standard screws are required for a secondary hard drive (not supported). All
other drives (except the primary hard drive) use M3 metric screws. The HP-supplied metric
screws are black and the HP-supplied standard screws are silver.
