2. Remove the T15 Torx screws holding the disk drive mounting bracket to the
chassis.
3. Slide the disk drive and mounting bracket toward the rear of the AM700 to
clear the front of the disk drive from the front panel casting.
4. When the disk drive is clear separate it from the AM700.
5. Separate the disk drive from the mounting bracket by removing the crosstip
screws that hold the disk drive to the mounting bracket using a P1 crosstip
screwdriver. The disk drive unit may have either two or four mounting
screws, depending on the vendor.
Reverse the procedure to reinstall the disk drive.
NOTE. The disk drive housing must be well centered in the front casting to allow
the trim ring to fit properly.
