Removing a 3.5" Drive Bezel Blank
If the computer was not shipped with a device in the 3.5" bay, the bay will be covered by a bezel blank.
If you install a device in the 3.5" bay, you must first remove the bezel blank.
1. Remove/disengage any security devices that prohibit opening the computer.
2. Remove all removable media, such as diskettes or compact discs, from the computer.
3. Turn off the computer properly through the operating system, then turn off any external devices.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet and the computer, and disconnect any external
devices.
WARNING! When the computer is plugged into an AC power source, voltage is always applied
to the system board. To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock and/or hot surfaces,
be sure to disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet and allow the internal system components
to cool before touching.
5. Remove the access panel and front bezel. Refer to Removing the Computer Access Panel and
Front Bezel on page 5.
6. While facing the inside of the front bezel, press outward on the two retaining tabs on each side of
the bezel blank (1) and pull the bezel blank inwards to remove it (2).
