Installing Optical and Floppy Disk Drives

Installing optical and floppy disk drives to this case is a very easy process as well. First you nee to remove the cover from the bay where you want to install your drive. To do that you need to press the lateral of the cover with a flat tip screwdriver, as shown on Figure 25. Then just pull the cover.

Even though the bays have a plastic latch (see on the left hand side of Figure 26) which makes each drive to be perfectly in place the drives are still a little bit lose, so you need to screw four regular thin thread screws to each drive.
