How do I remove the DVD-Rom & the DVD RW drives from the Medion PC Titanium MD 8080 XL

Re: Medion PC Titanium MD 8080 XL

How do I remove the DVD-Rom & the DVD RW drives from this PC?
They seem to be to long to pull back into the case,.
And as each drive has a flap infront of it, how do I pull them out from the front?

Because it is a 5 1/4"  case, you usually have to open the side  cover of the PC case, and remove the fixing screws of the DVD drive on both sides of  the drive.  And remove the cable plug connections.

But first, unplug the connecting plug from the wall socket!  And ground yourself to a radiator or water pipe  before touching the inner components.

 

Edit: Just for infrmation; I do not posess your PC, but the general handling is mostly the same.

 

If you can not manage to reach the opposite screws, you have to dismantle the entire drive cage. This contains the DVD drive, a harddisk and a floppy drive. and  is usually hooked  into the PC housing front with metal hooks and  2-4 fixing screws.

 

Than you  can remove the drive pulling it out in frontal direction. Be carefull to check the  cable connection of the remaining other drives in the cage after remounting.

 

Cheers, daddle
