Chapter 4. Installing options
This chapter provides instructions for installing or replacing options in your computer.
For a list of supported options for your computer, go to
http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/ on the World Wide Web.
Before you begin
Before you begin to install options in your computer, read the following information:
•
Read the handling guidelines in “Handling static-sensitive devices”, and read the
safety statements in “Safety information” on page vii. These guidelines will help
you work safely with your computer and options.
•
Make sure that you have an adequate number of properly grounded electrical
outlets for your computer, monitor, and other options that you intend to install.
•
Back up all important data before you make changes to disk drives.
•
Have a small, flat-blade screwdriver available.
•

System reliability considerations
To help ensure proper system cooling and system reliability, make sure that:
•
Each of the drive bays has a drive or a filler panel and electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) shield installed.
•
Expansion-slot covers must be installed on all vacant slots. This maintains the
electronic emissions standards of the computer and ensures proper ventilation of
computer components.
•
There is adequate space around the computer to allow the computer cooling
system to work properly. Leave approximately 51 mm (2 in.) of open space around
the front and rear of the computer. Do not place objects in front of the fans.
•
You have followed the instructions for cabling provided with optional adapters.
•
You have replaced a failed fan as soon as possible.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices, including your computer.
To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until
you are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
•
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
•
Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
•
Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed circuitry.
•
Do not leave the device where others can handle and, possibly, damage the
device.
•
While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted
metal part of the computer for at least 2 seconds. (This drains static electricity
from the package and from your body.)
