ESD can damage disk drives, cards, memory modules and other parts. We recommend that you carry out all
procedures in this guide only at an ESD-workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD -protection by
wearing an anti-static wrist strap attached to any unpainted metal surface when handling parts. If you don't have
one, discharge static electricity from yourself and your clothing by touching a nearby metal surface before handling
any internal components.
