Notes:
1. Tape drives, CD-ROM, DVD/CD-RW, and DVD-ROM drives are examples of
removable-media drives. You can install removable-media drives in bay 2 only.
2. You have two serial ATA (SATA) IDE hard disk drive connectors on the system
board.
3. You can mix and match parallel IDE or serial ATA IDE hard disk drives in bays 1
and 3.
4. The electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and cooling of the computer are
protected by having all bays and PCI slots covered or occupied. When you
install a drive or PCI adapter, save the EMC shield and filler panel from the bay
or the PCI adapter slot cover in the event you later remove the option.
5. For a complete list of supported options for your computer, go to
