The main drive bracket has three bays that can support:
o
3 x 5.25” Optical drives
o
2 x 5.25” Optical 1 x 3.5” HDD
o
2 x 5.25” Optical 1 x 3.5” FDD
A 3.5” drive tray (HDD or FDD) is installed into the top drive bay. The
two lower drive bays are covered with two metal plates. The 3.5”
drives (HDD or FDD) are always installed in the drive bracket in the
top drive bay. The 5.25” optical drives can be installed in all three
drive bays.
When you install drives into the main drive bracket, always install the
5.25” optical drives into the two lower drive bays first.
If you want to install a 5.25” optical drive into the main drive bracket,
follow the steps below:
Step 1:
If you are installing the 5.25” optical drive into the lower two
drive trays, remove the front metal covers from the drive
bays by removing the four retention screws that secure the
front metal plates to the main drive bracket.
Step 2:
If you are installing the 5.25” optical drive into the top drive
bay, remove the 3.5” drive tray from the main drive bracket.
To do this, remove the four retention screws that secure the
3.5” drive tray to the main drive bracket and then slide the
3.5” drive tray out of the main drive bracket.

at the rear of the drive bay.
Step 4:
Secure the 5.25” optical drive to the chassis by inserting
four retention screws through the sides of the main drive

Step 3:
Secure the HDD to the drive bracket by inserting four
retention screws (two on each side) through the sides of
the drive bracket and into the HDD.
