6 537502-001 — Removing and Replacing a Hard Disk Drive

16 Lift the cage partway out of the computer.

17 Disconnect the cables from the hard disk drive in

the cage:

The plugs on the cables are keyed and can be

inserted only when aligned properly with the

connector on the drive.

In addition, some plugs have a latch that must be

pressed or squeezed to release the plug while pulling

it from the connector.

 For plugs without a latch, pull the plug straight out

from the connector.

 For plugs with a latch, press the latch (1 or 3) in

the center of each plug, and then pull the

plug (2 or 4) from the connector.

18 Remove the four screws (two on each side) that secure

the drive in the cage.

IMPORTANT: Recording the plug locations when

there are multiple drives helps ensure you correctly

replace the connections.
