Chapter 2. Installing the drive
Depending on the type of enclosure, installation procedures might vary. Refer to
the enclosure documentation for drive installation. The following generic
procedure can be used if the enclosure documentation is not available.
Avoiding drive damage
To avoid static electricity damage when handling the drive, use the following
precautions:
v
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build around
you.
v
Always handle the drive carefully. Never touch exposed circuitry.
v
Prevent others from touching the drive.
v
Before unpacking and installing the drive into an enclosure, touch its
static-protective packaging to an unpainted metal surface on the enclosure for at
least two seconds. This reduces static electricity in the packaging and your body.
v
When possible, remove the drive from its static-protective packaging and install
it directly in an enclosure without setting it down. When this is not possible,
place the drive's packaging on a smooth, level surface and place the drive on the
packaging.
v
Do not place the drive on the cover of the enclosure or on any other metal
surface.
