Modular Bay Devices

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook contains a Modular Bay.

The Modular Bay can house an optical drive, a Lithium

ion battery, or a weight saver. (Figure 2-16)

Your Modular Bay will have one of the following devices

installed.

■

Modular Dual-Layer Multi-Format DVD Writer: This

allows you to access movies, software, and audio

DVD/CDs and record to DVD, CD, and DVD-RAM

discs.

■

Modular DVD/CD-RW combo drive: This allows you

to access movies, software, and audio DVD/CDs as

well as to write to CDs.

■

Modular DVD-ROM drive: This allows you to access

software, data, video, or audio CDs and DVDs.

■

Modular Lithium ion battery: This is a rechargeable

battery that can be used to power your LifeBook note-

book when an adapter is not connected.

■

Weight Saver: This is used to fill the bay when no

device is needed.

REMOVING AND INSTALLING

MODULAR DEVICES

There are two ways to remove and install modular

devices in the Modular Bay:

■

Cold-swapping: swapping devices while your LifeBook

notebook is powered off.

■

Hot-swapping: swapping devices while your system is

active using the Unplug/Eject icon from your taskbar.

Cold-swapping

To cold-swap modular devices in your Modular Bay

follow these easy steps: (Figure 2-17)

1. Close any open files.

2. Shut down your LifeBook notebook.

3. Pull out the Modular Bay release latch. This will

push your device out slightly, allowing you to

remove it.

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 LifeBook 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.

Hot-swapping

Under Windows XP, hot-swapping is provided through

the Unplug or Eject Hardware utility.

The icon for the utility appears on the taskbar. Click on

the icon and follow the on-screen instructions.

Modular Bay Release Latch

You should never leave your Modular Bay

empty when the notebook is in operation.

If left empty, dust or foreign matter may

accumulate inside the notebook.

Be careful when 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.
