Mount the Drive in the Computer

You can mount your internal drive in any available bay. You must
remove the small panel that covers the bay that you want to use.
NOTE: The drive can be mounted horizontally or vertically
If you don't have an empty bay, remove the existing IDE DVD-ROM or
CD-ROM drive and install the PX-850A.
You must make a minimum of two cable connections to your PX-850A.
The two cable connections that you must make are:
• IDE cable
• Power cable
To mount the PX-850A drive:
1. Make sure the power to your computer and any external peripherals
is turned OFF and your computer is UNPLUGGED from its power
source.
2. If you haven't already removed the cover from your computer,
remove it now, following the directions provided by your computer's
manufacturer. Typically, this involves loosening or removing several
screws on the back panel of your computer and sliding off the cover.
See Figure 3 for details.
3. Remove the cover panel from the bay that will hold the drive. To
remove the cover panel, pop it out by pressing outward lightly. (In
some older computers, you may have to remove screws that hold the
panel in place.)
