Avid Installed Fan in the Compaq W8000 System

The documentation that ships with the Compaq W8000 system explains

how to install optional equipment. However, Avid requires an extra fan in

the Compaq W8000 system for cooling the Avid board set. The following

sections describe how to remove and reinstall the fan that Avid has added

to the Compaq W8000 system.

Removing the Fan

To remove the fan:

1. Turn off the system and unplug the power cord.

2. Put on an antistatic wrist strap and connect it to a metal ground point

on your system.

To avoid static damage to your circuit board, take the proper antistatic

precautions before handling the board.

3. Lay the system on its right side and remove the left side cover

according to the manufacturer’s documentation.

4. Unplug the fan (see Figure 15).

Avid uses one of the power connectors available for internal disk drives.
