Replacing the hard disk drive
You can increase the storage capacity of your computer by replacing the hard
disk drive with one of greater capacity. You can purchase a new hard disk
drive from your reseller or Lenovo marketing representative.
Notes:
•
Replace the hard disk drive only for upgrading or repair. The connectors and bay of the
hard disk drive were not designed for frequent changes or drive swapping.
The preinstalled software are not included on an optional hard disk drive.
•
Make sure the computer is turned off and all the cables disconnected from the computer
•
before you replace the hard disk drive.
•
Make sure the computer display is closed to avoid being damaged.
Handling a hard disk drive
• Do not drop the drive or subject it to physical shock. Put the drive on a material,
such as soft cloth, that absorbs any physical shock.
• Do not apply pressure to the cover of the drive.
• Do not touch the connector of the drive.
The hard disk drive is very sensitive. Incorrect handling can cause damage
and permanent loss of data on the hard disk. Before removing the hard disk
drive, make a backup copy of all the information on the hard disk, and then
turn the computer off. Never remove the hard disk drive while the system is
operating or in sleep mode.
