Step 4. Preparing the Drive for a 5.25-inch Bay
You must use a commercially available 3.5-inch to 5.25-inch
conversion kit to install the Zip IDE drive in a 5.25-inch bay. See the
documentation that comes with your conversion kit for directions on
installing the drive in a 5.25-inch bay.
Step 5. Mounting the Drive in the Bay
Attention: Be sure to use the mounting screws that come with
your drive. You might damage your drive if you use mounting
screws that are too long.
You can mount the drive horizontally or vertically in your computer.
To mount the drive in the bay:
1. Locate a vacant drive bay and remove the panel cover.
2. Slide the drive into the bay.
3. Align the front of the Zip drive with other drives installed in the
computer.
4. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the
drive housing or expansion brackets. If there is not clear access
to the drive-bay screw holes, refer to the documentation that came
with your computer for additional instructions.
5. Hand thread the screws to lightly secure the drive in the bay, as
shown.
(If the drive is held in place securely by rails, you will not need
to use the mounting screws.)
6. Check the drive alignment and tighten the screws.
Do not overtighten.
