Notes:
1. Diskette drives, tape drives, CD-ROM, DVD/CD-RW, and DVD-ROM drives are
examples of removable-media drives. You can install removable-media drives in
bays 1, 2, 3, and 4 only.
2. You can install a 3.5-in. slim-high or 5.25-in. half-high removable-media drive,
such as a tape backup drive, in bay 2.
3. The IntelliStation M Pro computer supports only one diskette drive.
4. To install a 3.5-in. drive in a 5.25-in. bay, you must use the 5.25-in. conversion
kit, supplied with the option.
5. You have two serial ATA hard disk drive connectors on the system board.
6. You can mix and match parallel IDE and serial ATA IDE drives in bays 2, 4, 5, 6,
and 7.
7. 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.
