Preparing for Installation

Although HP computers are designed for easy access to the
upgradeable areas, it is strongly recommended that only an HP

authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider install accessories.
HP authorized dealers, resellers, and service providers are
company trained in the installation of accessories and can ensure
that the accessory is installed and functioning properly.

If you decide to install the hard drive accessory yourself, you will
need a Torx T-15 screwdriver.
