Installing 5¼ Inch Devices 

 

Before proceeding, be sure you are thoroughly familiar with the information in “Before 
You Begin” at the front of this chapter.   
 
Installing 5¼ inch devices in the chassis is a two fold step: 
 

1.

  The top part of the front panel needs to be removed; this is done by pressing two 

buttons on either side of the front panel as shown overleaf.

 

 

 

Figure 5: Removal of the top front panel for access to the 5¼ inch bays 

 
 

2.  Secondly each device to go in the bays must be secured to plastic slide rails 

supplied with the system, this allows peripherals to be removed quickly from the 
system should the need arise and is also part of the chassis tool-less design. The 
slide rails are attached to devices as shown below.
