drives, you may lose data as a result. Always handle storage devices
with caution. Make sure that you’re properly grounded by wearing
an anti-static strap when you install any computer component. If an
anti-static strap isn’t available, touch a large, grounded metal surface
for several seconds to discharge any built-up static electricity.
