Project 7: Replace Your Hard Disk??”or Add Another Hard Disk 73
Detach the hard disk from its connector, and then remove it. The illustration
shows an example of a drive that is held by its connector and by spring
clips.
If the hard disk uses an enclosure, as in
the example shown here, unscrew any retaining
screws and then remove the disk
from the enclosure. Insert the replacement
disk, and then apply the retaining
screws.
Insert the hard disk or enclosure in the
bay or area that contains it, and then secure
its connector.
Close the case again.

Step 6: Format the New Hard Disk
Before you can use the new hard disk, you must format it to apply a file system to it
that enables Windows to access it.
If you??™ve replaced your PC??™s existing hard disk with the new hard disk, formatting
it is no problem: When you install Windows (or another operating system), the
installation routine automatically prompts you to format the disk.
If you??™ve added a hard disk, you need to format it manually. Follow these steps in
either Windows Vista or Windows XP:
Start your PC. When Windows starts, you may see a notification-area pop-up
message announcing that it is installing a device driver for your new hardware.
