• Follow the precautions listed above in “Electrostatic discharge
protection.”
• Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive. Return the
entire drive for depot repair if any circuit board is defective.
Removal of circuit boards by personnel not performing depot
repair will damage components and may void the warranty.
• Do not remove the head and disc assembly (HDA) from the
drive. Return the entire drive for depot repair if the HDA is
defective.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the HDA. It is not field repair-
able. If the sealed HDA is opened by personnel not performing
depot repair, this will damage components and void the
warranty.
As a component, this drive is designed to be installed and oper-
ated in accordance with UL1950, EN60950, CAN/CSA C22.2
950-95, and VDE0805.
Seagate takes all reasonable steps to ensure that its products
are certifiable to currently accepted standards. Typical applica-
tions of these disc drives include customer packaging and sub-
system design. Safety agencies conditionally certify component
assemblies, such as the Barracuda disc drive, based on their
final acceptability in the end-use product. The subsystem
designers are responsible for meeting these conditions of
acceptability in obtaining safety-regulatory agency compliance in
their end-use products and for certifying where required by law.
A necessary part of meeting safety requirements is the provision
for overcurrent protection on drive SELV supply voltages.
