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, SATA3, and SATA5).
You must install mounting screws for hard drives and 5.25-inch optical drives to ensure the drive will
line up correctly in the drive cage and lock in place. HP has provided four extra 3.5-inch hard drive
mounting screws installed on the side of the drive bay (1).
CAUTION: To prevent loss of work and damage to the computer or drive:
If you are inserting or removing a drive, shut down the operating system properly, turn o the computer, and
unplug the power cord. Do not remove a drive while the computer is on or in standby mode.
Before handling a drive, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive, avoid
touching the connector. For more information about preventing electrostatic damage, refer to Electrostatic
discharge information on page 10.
Handle a drive carefully; do not drop it.
Do not use excessive force when inserting a drive.
Avoid exposing a hard drive to liquids, temperature extremes, or products that have magnetic elds such as
monitors or speakers.
If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble-pack mailer or other protective packaging and label the
package “Fragile: Handle With Care.”
