Motherboard
(You will need to remove the rear exhaust fan before you install the motherboard.)
Procedures
1. Remove the side cover from the chassis (refer to Section A).
2. Locate the exhaust fan tabs on the back panel (See picture below right.)
3. Apply pressure to the tabs (located on the top and the bottom of the rear exhaust fan) to snap the fan out of its locked position.

D. Removing Components from and Installing
Devices into the 5.25" Drive Bays
After removing the side cover from the chassis, you can remove or install devices into the drive bays (See Section A for removing the side cover).
Procedures
1. Remove the side cover to access the 5.25" drive bays.
2. Remove the screws of the bay you wish to install or remove a compo­nent from. (*The chassis comes with dummy modules in all bays to maintain adequate airflow. These dummy modules should remain in the chassis until you want to add a component. Note that the top two bays are combined into a single module. To add components, you must first remove the four screws corresponding both bays.)
3. After removing the screws, push the drive module out from the front of the chassis. For the floppy drive bay, you must first remove the two face plates.
4. Attach the dummy rails to the new drive and insert the new drive into the bay. Secure it to the chassis with the screws you've removed. Remember to plug the data and power cables into the drive. When finished, place the chassis side cover to its place and secure it with the screws.
