■
Avoid static-causing surfaces such as carpeted floors, plastic, and packing
foam.
■
Avoid working on the server when your work area is extremely humid.
■
Remove components from their antistatic bags only when you are ready
to use them. Do not lay components on the outside of antistatic bags
because only the inside of the bags provide electrostatic protection.
■
Always hold expansion cards by their edges or their metal mounting
brackets. Avoid touching the edge connectors and components on the
cards. Never slide expansion cards or components over any surface.
Opening the server case
Warning
This server may have two power cords. To
disconnect internal AC power, you must
unplug both power cords.
Because the components inside your server are extremely sensitive to static
electricity, make sure that you follow the instructions at the beginning of this
chapter to avoid static electricity damage.
Warning
Screws are required to support the front
of the server when using the standard
cabinet rails. You must support the server
while removing the front screws and
while sliding the server off the cabinet
rails. If the server is not supported,
damage to the server or injury may result.
To open the server:
1
Follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on
page 30 . Make sure that you turn off the server, then unplug the power
cord(s) and all other cables connected to the server.
2
If the bezel is installed, unlock it, then pull it off.
Caution
For correct cooling and air flow, always
reinstall the top covers before you turn on
the server. Operating the server without
the covers in place will cause the server to
overheat.
3
If the server is mounted in a cabinet, remove the server from the cabinet.
For instructions, see
“Removing the server from a cabinet” on page 17 .
4
Place the server on a stable, non-skid surface.

The hard drive carriers shown in these
illustrations may look different than the
actual hard drive carriers in your server.
