Installation Precautions

Before you install any system component, we recommend that you read the
following sections.  These sections contain important ESD precautions, pre- and
post-installation instructions.

4.1.1

ESD Precautions

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drives, expansion
boards, and other components.  Always observe the following precautions before
you install a system component:

1.

 

Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you are
ready to install it.

2.

 

Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the system unit
before handling components.  If a wrist strap is not available, maintain
contact with the system unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD
protection.
