Laser compliance statement
Some IBM Personal Computer models are equipped from the factory with a
CD-ROM drive or a DVD-ROM drive. CD-ROM drives and DVD-ROM drives are
also sold separately as options. CD-ROM drives and DVD-ROM drives are laser
products. These drives are certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of
the Department of Health and Human Services 21 Code of Federal Regulations
(DHHS 21 CFR) Subchapter J for Class 1 laser products. Elsewhere, these drives
are certified to conform to the requirements of the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) 825 and CENELEC EN 60 825 for Class 1 laser products.
When a CD-ROM drive or a DVD-ROM drive is installed, note the following
handling instructions.
CAUTION:
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein might result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Removing the covers of the CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive could result in
exposure to hazardous laser radiation. There are no serviceable parts inside the
CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive. Do not remove the drive covers.
Some CD-ROM drives and DVD-ROM drives contain an embedded Class 3A or
Class 3B laser diode. Note the following statement.

Tools required
To install some options in your computer, you might need a flat-blade or Phillips
screwdriver. Additional tools might be needed for certain options. See the
instructions that come with the option.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Static electricity, although harmless to you, can seriously damage computer
components and options.
When you add an option, do not open the static-protective package containing the
option until you are instructed to do so.
When you handle options and other computer components, take these precautions
to avoid static electricity damage:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
Chapter 1. Type 83165
v Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters and memory modules by
the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry.
v Prevent others from touching components.
v When you install a new option, touch the static-protective package containing
the option to a metal expansion-slot cover or other unpainted metal surface on
the computer for at least two seconds. This reduces static electricity in the
package and your body.
v When possible, remove the option and install it directly in the computer without
setting the option down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective
package that the option came in on a smooth, level surface and place the option
on it.
v Do not place the option on the computer cover or other metal surface.
Installing external options
This section shows the various external connectors on your computer to which you
can attach external options, such as external speakers, a printer, or a scanner. For
some external options, you must install additional software in addition to making
the physical connection. When adding an external option, use the information in
this section to identify the required connector, and then use the instructions that
come with the option to help you make the connection and install any software or
device drivers that are required for the option.

v To complete the installation, go to “Replacing the cover and connecting the
cables” on page 21.
Installing internal drives
This section provides information and instructions for installing and removing
internal drives.
Internal drives are devices that your computer uses to read and store data. You can
add or replace drives to your computer to increase storage capacity and to enable
your computer to read other types of media such as CD-ROM.
Internal drives are installed in bays. In this book, the bays are referred to as bay 1,
bay 2, and so on.
When you install an internal drive, it is important to note what type and size of
drive that you can install in each bay. Also, it is important to correctly connect the
internal drive cables to the installed drive.
Drive specifications
Your computer might come with the following IBM-installed drives:
v A 3.5-inch diskette drive in bay 1
v A CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive in bay 2 (some models)
v A 3.5-inch hard disk drive in bay 3
Any bay that does not have a drive installed has a static shield and bay panel
installed.
14User Guide
The following illustration shows the locations of the drive bays.
The following list describes some of the drives that you can install in each bay and
their height requirements:
1Bay 1 - Maximum height: 25.8 mm (1.0 in.) 3.5-inch diskette drive (preinstalled)
2Bay 2 - Maximum height: 43.0 mm (1.7 in.) CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive
(preinstalled in some models)
3Bay 3 - Maximum height: 25.8 mm (1.0 in.) 3.5-inch hard disk drive (preinstalled)
Notes:
1. Drives that are greater than 43.0 mm (1.7 in.) high cannot be installed.
2. Install removable media (tape or CD) drives in the accessible bay (bay 2).
Installing a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive
To install a CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive in bay 2, follow these steps:
1. Remove the cover (see “Removing the cover” on page 9).
2. Remove the bay panel from the front bezel.
3. Remove the metal shield from the drive bay by inserting a flat-blade
screwdriver into one of the slots and gently prying it loose.
4. Make sure the drive is set correctly as the master device. Refer to the
documentation that comes with your CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive for
master/slave jumper information.
5. Pivot the drive bay latch handle toward the front of the computer and then
pivot the drive bay cage upward, as shown, until it is latched in the up
position.
Chapter 1. Type 831615
6. Install the drive into the bay. Align the screw holes and insert the two screws.
7. Each integrated drive electronics (IDE) drive requires two cables; a four-wire
power cable that connects to the power supply, and a signal cable that connects
to the system board. For a CD-ROM drive, you might also have an audio cable.
To connect a CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive to your computer, follow
these steps:
a. Locate the signal cable that comes with your computer or with the new
drive.
