Turn off the machine.

If what you have is actually an Ultrabay drive and a T23, then push the lit=
tle=20
slide at the back of the DVD opening near the bottom edge.  A tab will then=
=20
pop out.  Pull the tab to eject the Ultrabay DVD from the T23.

Slide the new Ultrabay drive home and seat it in the bay.  Push in the tab.=
 =20
Start the machine.

It is possible someone has put in the security screw on the bottom of the=20
machine to prevent the tab from popping out, so that no one can steal the D=
VD=20
drive.  Only look for this if the tab doesn't pop out - it's not often done.

Cheers,
Bret
