INSTALLING THE SMARTDRIVE ASSEMBLY

To install the drive in the computer:

1. Remove the cover from the computer as directed in the computer user's
   guide.

2. Choose an expansion slot for the SmartDrive assembly. The slot should leave
   adequate room between the SmartDrive assembly and other expansion boards.

3. Remove the metal plate that covers the expansion slot opening at the back
   of the computer.

4. Carefully install the SmartDrive assembly, noting that:

* The edge-connector of the SmartDrive interface board must be fully seated
  in the expansion slot so that it makes good connection, but must not damage
  the computer main logic board.

* The SmartDrive tail assembly must properly connect to the computer using the
  expansion board guide located at the front (across from the expansion slot
  cover) of the computer.

5. Fasten the SmartDrive assembly into the expansion slot, using the screw
   removed from the expansion slot bracket (or small round head screw as
   provided in kit).

6. Replace the computer cover as described in the computer user's guide.
