CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge can harm delicate components inside Western Digital products.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a discharge of stored static electricity that can damage
equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic components are
improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Wear an ESD wrist strap for installation, service and maintenance to prevent damage to
components in the product. Ensure the antistatic wrist strap is attached to a chassis ground
(any unpainted metal surface). If possible, keep one hand on the frame when you install or
remove an ESD-sensitive part.
Before moving ESD-sensitive parts place them in ESD static-protective bags until you are
ready to install the part.
CAUTION The power outlet must be easily accessible and close to the unit.
Always use properly grounded, unmodified electrical outlets and cables. Ensure all outlets
and cables are rated to supply the proper voltage and current.
This unit has more than one power supply connection; both power cords must be removed
from the power supplies to completely remove power from the unit. There is no switch or
other disconnect device.
