3.1
Handling and static discharge precautions
After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic
discharge (ESD) hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions:
Caution:
• Do not cover or seal the breather hole! Covering or sealing the breather hole may result in loss of data.
Figure 5.
Lyrion Series breather hole location
• Keep the drive in the electrostatic discharge (ESD) bag until you are ready for installation to limit the drive’s
exposure to ESD.
• Before handling the drives, put on a grounded wrist strap, or ground yourself frequently by touching the metal
chassis of a computer that is plugged into a grounded outlet. Wear a grounded wrist strap throughout the entire
installation procedure.
• Handle the drive only by its edges or frame.
Figure 6.
Lyrion Series proper handling example
• The drive is fragile—handle it with care. Do not press down on the drive top cover or attempt to use a pen to
write on the drive’s label.
• Do not apply more than 6.8N of force to the top cover.
• Always rest the drives on a padded, antistatic surface until you mount it in the system.
