Internal storage media can be damaged when drives are shaken, dropped, or
roughly placed on a work surface. When installing a hard drive, make sure it
is fully seated in the drive bay. To remove a hard drive, press the release button
and pull the drive only slightly out of the enclosure.Then, to allow time for the
internal disk to stop rotating, wait approximately 10 seconds before completely
removing the drive from the enclosure.
HP recommends installing hard drives in bay-number sequence. Locate this
