Depending on the computer configuration, you may have a bezel blank in this
position. If you do not have a drive in this slot, you may choose to install a 3.5-
inch drive (such as a diskette drive, hard drive, or media card reader) later on.
To verify the type and size of the storage devices installed in the computer, run Computer Setup. Refer
to the Computer Setup (F10) Utility Guide on the Documentation and Diagnostics CD for more
