Servicing the DVD-ROM/CD-ROM Drive
The peripheral bay accepts one IDE DVD-ROM/CD-ROM drive. This IDE device interface is not
hot-swappable. To replace this device, the system must be powered down and the peripheral bay
must be removed from the chassis. The DVD-ROM/CD-ROM drive is housed in carrier assembly
with metal shields to facilitate servicing and to reduce ESD and EMI susceptibility.
Removing the DVD/CD-ROM Drive from the Peripheral Bay
To access the DVD-ROM/CD-ROM drive, you must first do the following:
1. Remove the peripheral bay from the chassis.
2. Remove the peripheral board from the peripheral bay.
3. Remove the DVD-ROM / CD-ROM carrier.
The steps below guide you through this process:
1. Remove the peripheral bay from the chassis. For instructions, see Removing the Peripheral
Bay.
2. Remove the peripheral board from the peripheral bay. For instructions, see Removing the
Peripheral Board.
3. Loosen the retaining screw on the DVD-ROM/CD-ROM carrier and slide it rearward to remove
it from the peripheral bay. See Figure 71.
4. Continue with the appropriate task:
•
To replace or remove a DVD-ROM or CD-ROM drive, continue with Removing the DVD-
ROM/CD-ROM Drive from the Drive Carrier.

To add a new DVD-ROM or CD-ROM drive (do not need to remove an existing drive from
