Step 1 Unpack the Subsystem
Static-free Installation
Static electricity can damage the system’s electronic components. To prevent ESD
damage to any of the components, follow these precautions before touching or handling
them:
Discharge the static electricity accumulated in your body by wearing an anti-static
wristband.
Use antistatic strap during handling. Connect the equipment end of the strap to
an unfinished chassis surface.
Avoid carpets, plastic, vinyl, and styrofoam in your work area.
If the need should arise for carrying subsystem modules from one place to
another, carry them in a static shielding container.
Avoid the contact between circuit boards and clothing.
Handle all components by holding their edges or metal frames. Avoid touching
the exposed circuitry on PCB boards and connector pins.
Unpack the Subsystem
Carefully unpack the containers and check the items contained in each box for shipping
damage before proceeding with installation..
One of the received boxed will contain the drive trays with drives installed
