Before you begin

NOTE: Only computers having non-factory-integrated, high-power PCI cards require the additional

cooling provided by the optional front chassis fan included in this kit. This front fan is not recommended

for use on computers that have hard drives mounted in the optical bays if your environmental

temperature exceeds 27°C (80°F). This might reduce long-term reliability of these hard drives.
