[G4] Re: Trying to install a ATA drive in the rear carrier

[Send2Rich at aol.com]

First, my apologies to the group on the essentially empty earlier post.


David,

I had a similar problem on my MDD G4.   It turned out that the manual omitted 
a little detail: a screw in a tab at the top of the drive carrier.   I 
removed the screw, and the carrier came out following the existing instructions.   I 
did NOT replace the screw after mounting the second drive!

Good luck
Rich
