backplanes are
extremely delicate and can be easily bent. Precise
alignment and proper insertion/ejection procedures are
critical in order to avoid bending backplane pins.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) may damage memory chips,
programmed devices, and other electrical components.
ESD can be prevented by wearing a wrist strap attached to
a ground post on a static mat. Handling of this product
should ONLY be done by a properly trained technician in
an approved ESD work area.
Any unoccupied slots, both front and rear, must be
covered by a filler plate in order for proper cooling airflow
to take place. Leaving a slot uncovered could result in
overheating and failure of one or more system
components.
