Remove
1. Turn off the power button on the back panel and open the chassis.
2. Locate the hard drive to be removed.
3. Unlock the hard drive handle by pushing the button to the right until the handle pops out
4. Disconnect the hard drive from the hard drive assembly by pulling the hard drive by the handle.
5. Set the hard drive aside on an antistatic mat.
6. Choose your next step:
* If you removed the hard drive to replace it, proceed to Section 4.5.1.2, Installing a Hard Disk Drive, to install the new hard drive.
* If you removed the hard drive and will not replace it at this time, replace the left-side access panel and power on the system.

Install
1. Turn off the power button on the back panel and open the chassis.
2. Remove the hard drive from its antistatic packaging.
3. Push the handle release button to the right until the hard drive handle pops open.
4. Locate the hard drive assembly and hard drive assembly guides.
If you are installing a second hard drive, install it in the remaining free slot in the hard drive assembly. The boot hard drive must be installed in hard drive slot HDD1 (top). The second hard drive bay is hard drive slot HDD2 (bottom).
5. Align the hard drive with the hard drive assembly guides and slide the hard drive into the hard drive assembly until the hard drive handle begins to close.
6. Press the hard drive handle closed until it locks the hard drive in the hard drive assembly.
This seats the hard drive connector into the SATA backplane connector.
