Chapter 9. Installing or replacing hardware
This chapter contains the following topics:
• “Handling static-sensitive devices” on page 79
• “Installing or replacing hardware” on page 79
Handling static-sensitive devices
Do not open the static-protective package containing the new part until the defective part has been removed
and you are ready to install the new part. Static electricity, although harmless to you, can seriously damage
computer components and parts.
When you handle parts and other computer components, take these precautions to avoid static-electricity
damage:
• Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.
• Always handle parts and other computer components carefully. Handle PCI/PCI-Express cards, memory
modules, system boards, and microprocessors by the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry.
• Prevent others from touching the parts and other computer components.
• Touch the static-protective package containing the part to a metal expansion-slot cover or other
unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two seconds. This reduces static electricity from
the package and your body before you install or replace a new part.
• When possible, remove the new part from the static-protective package, and install it directly in the
computer without setting the part down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective package
that the part came in on a smooth, level surface and place the part on the package.
• Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.
Installing or replacing hardware
This section provides instructions on how to install or replace hardware for the computer. You can expand
the capabilities of the computer and maintain the computer by installing or replacing hardware.
Attention: Do not open the computer or attempt any repair before reading and understanding the Chapter 1
“Read this first: Important safety information” on page 1.
Notes:
• Some of the hardware parts in this section are optional.
• Use computer parts provided only by Lenovo.
• When installing or replacing an option, use the appropriate instructions in this section along with the
instructions that come with the option.
• In most areas of the world, Lenovo requires the return of the defective CRU. Information about this will
come with the CRU or will come a few days after the CRU arrives.
Installing external options
You can connect external options to the computer, such as external speakers, a printer, or a scanner. For
some external options, you must install additional software in addition to making the physical connection.
When installing an external option, see “Hardware locations” on page 27 to identify the required connector.
