Cable management
Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer.
•
Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink.
•
Do not jam cables on top of expansion cards or memory modules. Printed circuit cards are not
designed to withstand excessive pressure.
•
Keep cables clear of sliding or moveable parts to prevent cutting or crimping.
•
When folding a flat ribbon cable, never fold to a sharp crease. Sharp creases may damage the
wires.
•
Some flat ribbon cables come prefolded. Never change the folds on these cables.
•
Do not sharply bend any cable. A sharp bend can break the internal wires.
•
Never bend a SATA data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
•
Never crease a SATA data cable.
•
Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or system cover to push cables
down into the chassis.

CAUTION: Always pull the connector. NEVER pull on the cable. Pulling on the cable can damage
