Replacing or Upgrading a Drive
The computer supports up to six drives that may be installed in
various configurations.
This section describes the procedure for replacing or upgrading the
storage drives. A Torx screwdriver is needed to replace the guide
screws on a drive.
Ä
CAUTION: Make sure you back up your personal files on the hard drive
to an external storage device, such as a CD, before removing the hard
drive. Failure to do so will result in data loss. After replacing the primary
hard drive, you will need to run the Restore Plus! CD to load the HP
factory-installed files.
