Unpacking the Disk Drive
Caution – Make sure you handle the drive carefully. Any jarring movement or
hard impact could damage the drive.
When you unpack the disk drive from the shipping box:
1. Compare the packing list with the hardware you received.
2. Place the drive on an antistatic surface, (such as the antistatic bag in
which the drive was shipped), with the printed circuit board (PCB) side
up.
3. Save the box and the packing material in case you have to ship the drive
at some future date.
