Hard Disk Drive

Hard disk drives have higher capacities and operate at much faster speeds than floppy disk drives and optical drives. The Notebook

PC comes with a replaceable hard disk drive. Current hard drives support S.M.A.R.T. (Self Monitoring and Reporting Technology) to detect hard disk errors or failures before they happen. When replacing or upgrading the hard drive, always visit an authorized service center or retailer for this Notebook PC.

IMPORTANT! Poor handling of the Notebook PC may damage the hard disk drive. Handle the Notebook PC gently and keep it away from static electricity and strong vibrations or impact. The hard disk drive is the most delicate component and will likely be the first or only component that is damaged if the Notebook PC is dropped.

IMPORTANT! When replacing or upgrading the hard drive, always visit an authorized service center or retailer for this

Notebook PC.

WARNING! Disconnect all the connected peripherals, any telephone or telecommunication lines and power connector

(such as external power supply, battery pack, etc.) before removing the hard disk cover.

The number of the hard disk drive varies with your purchased model. The secondary hard disk drive bay may be empty
