IBM PS/2 (Type 8590, 9590) - Optical drive installation

Applicable to: World-Wide

Service Information:
A limited number of Enhanced Rewritable Optical drive FRUs, P/N92F0167, were shipped without a slide. The slide is required for installation into a Model 8590 or 9590 system. The FRU may contain either of the following bill of materials:
1. Enhanced Rewritable Optical drive (Mfg. P/N 06G8900)
2. a. 1 inch high Rewritable Optical drive FRU P/N66G7510
b. 5.25 inch half-high expansion kit
c. 2 sets of mounting rails
If you receive FRU P/N92F0167 and it contains the second bill of materials, a slide, FRU P/N92F0162 is required to complete the installation. The slide will screw to the bottom of the FRU assembly. The assembly can now be slid and latched into the 8590. Since there is no custom bezel for this FRU, a space of about 3/8" between the drive bezel and the system cover will exist.

Note:
If the second bill of materials identified above has already been installed, the Optical drive can be replaced by ordering FRU P/N66G7510.
