There are three ways to remove and install modular 
devices in the Flexible Bay:

■

Cold-swapping: swapping devices while your 
notebook is powered off.

■

Warm-swapping: swapping devices while your
notebook is in suspend mode.

■

Hot-swapping: swapping devices while your
system is active using BaySwap

™

 software.

Cold-swapping
To cold-swap modular devices in your Flexible Bay 
follow these easy steps: (Figure 2-21)

1. Close any open files.

2. Shutdown your notebook.

3. Pull out the Flexible Bay release latch and then 

press the latch in to release the modular device.
This will push your device out slightly allowing
you to remove the device.

4. Slide your device out until it is clear of the bay.

This will require light force.

5. Slide the device you are installing into your

notebook until it clicks into place.

6. It is now safe to turn your notebook back on.

7. You can now access and use the device.

Your notebook will automatically detect the new device 
and activate it within your system. The drive letters
associated with the device will be created and listed 
under My Computer and Windows Explorer.

Flexible Bay Release Latch

Be careful aligning and seating devices in the bay. If the 
fit is incorrect, you may damage the bay or the device. 
If the device does not move easily in the bay, remove it, 
and check for dirt or foreign objects. It will require a 
firm push to latch the device in place.
