Installing a 5.25-inch drive

NOTE: HP does not oer a 5.25-inch optical drive for this computer model. A 5.25-inch optical drive can be

purchased through a third-party vendor.

1. Prepare the computer for disassembly (Preparation for disassembly on page 18)

2. Remove the access panel (Access panel on page 19)

3. Remove the front bezel (Front bezel on page 20). If you are installing a drive in a bay covered by a bezel

blank, remove the bezel blank. See Removing bezel blanks on page 22 for more information.

4. If you are installing an optical drive, install four M3 metric mounting screws (not provided) in the lower

holes on each side of the drive.

NOTE: When replacing an optical drive, transfer the four M3 metric mounting screws from the old drive

to the new one.

CAUTION: Use only 5-mm long screws as mounting screws. Longer screws can damage the internal

components of the drive.

5. Slide the drive into the drive bay, making sure to align the mounting screws with the mounting slots,

until the drive snaps into place.

6. Connect the power cable and data cable to the rear of the optical drive.
