Internal Hard Disk Drive
Found just underneath the left side of the palm-rest panel is the internal hard disk drive
(HDD). The internal HDD is an approved industry standard 2.5-inch (12.7mm or 9.5mm)
high-capacity IDE hard disk drive. The notebook likewise supports Ultra-DMA and LBA
mode up to 12GB capacity or higher.
Cover Switch
The Cover Switch is found inside the notebook assembly just underneath the latch opening
where you insert the LCD cover hook. Whenever the LCD cover is closed, it activates the
Suspend mode or switches the display to CRT if there is an external monitor connected.
When Suspend-to-RAM mode is activated, make sure not to leave the system
for a long period when running at battery mode. The battery will continue to drain
some power even in Suspend mode. It is better to save all files and shutdown
the power instead or run Suspend-to-Disk mode.

The air vent allows the CPU fan to draw air into the heat pipe unit found inside the notebook.
The hot air, in turn, is emitted out of the notebook through another air vent found on the right
side of the notebook.
