INSTALLING PERIPHERALS
Mounting peripheral devices in your computer is simply a matter of attaching plastic rails
to the side of the peripheral and sliding the device into its mounting position. The
AM-990 chassis has mounting locations for 12 half-height (or six full-height) 5-1/4"
peripherals. The front door on the AM-990 chassis has a cutout which allows access to
peripheral devices using removable media. This cutout will accommodate up to four
5-1/4" half-height peripherals.
The following illustration shows the peripheral mounting area for your computer with the
slots numbered 1 through 12.
