1. Always power down and disconnect devices from AC power before
handling them, as some circuitry on the server can continue to
operate even though the front panel switch is OFF. Failure to
disconnect the device from AC power can result in personal injury
or equipment damage. And, always ensure correct anti-static
handling is observed to avoid potential ESD damage in the card
(e.g. do not walk on carpet).
