mally used for non-hard-disk drive devices such as CD-ROM drives and/or tape drives.
These can be enhanced integrated drive electronics (EIDE) or SCSI devices.

The two internal drive bays (located in the drive cage next to the externally accessible
drive bays; see Figure 7-1) are used for either SCSI hard-disk drives or EIDE hard-disk
drives. Internal hard-disk drives are mounted vertically in a removable drive bracket
that can contain up to two 1.6-inch hard-disk drives.
NOTE: Dell supports only the drives it furnishes.

the system—no further installation or configuration is needed. The following sub-
sections provide instructions on reinstalling these drivers. Repeat the procedure for
each SCSI driver you want to install.
