 SATA Hard Disk in Removable Drive Tray |There are a few different methods of setting up for the SEC520 lab:

Specification for SATA Hard Disk in Removable Drive Tray: |<br /><br />Hard Disk Size: at least '''160GB''' ''(250 - 500 GB preferred)''.<br />'''Please buy the tray from ACS or the bookstore''' as not all trays are compatible.<br /><br />Mechanical shock from dropping a hard drive causes drive failure for several students each semester. If you use a mechanical hard drive, be careful not to drop it, and transport it in a padded container (e.g., a neoprene netbook sleeve, available from some dollar stores).<br /><br /> Solid state disks (SSDs) are becoming competitive in price, are faster, and are less susceptible to shock, so you may want to look for a deal on an SSD instead of a hard drive -- but check to ensure that your SSD will fit properly into your drive tray.<br /><br />Please tighten the drive screws securely to prevent the tray from jamming in the holder, or leave the screws off.<br /><br />
