Small Mini-Tower Computer
Installing a Hard Drive
CAUTION: To avoid the possibility of electric shock, turn off the
computer and any devices, disconnect them from electrical
outlets, and then wait 10 to 20 seconds before you open the
computer cover. Also, before you install a drive, see the other
precautions in “Safety First—For You and Your Computer.”
NOTICE: Ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface on the
back of the computer.
NOTICE: When you unpack the drive, do not set it on a hard surface, which
may damage the drive. Instead, set the drive on a surface, such as a foam pad,
that will sufficiently cushion it.
