## internal ssd

It is possible to add an additional hard drive or ssd in the chassis. An
optical drive adapter to ssd can be used, or the disk can be manually
installed:

- Install the ssd in the DVD bay/DVD blank.
- Plug the ssd to the second SATA port in the motherboard.
- Boot to the BIOS and enable the second SATA port to boot on it.

## quiet fans

Disable the automatic fan speed, and slows them down to the minimum.
