A brief discussion of each starts on page 12.
2.1 Handling and static-discharge precautions
After you unpack the drive, and before you install it in a computer, be
careful not to damage it through mishandling. Wool and synthetic cloth-
ing, carpet, plastics and Styrofoam are contributors to the static build-up
that can damage sensitive components when discharged through touch.
Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precau-
tions:
Caution:
•
Keep the drive in its static-shielded bag until you are ready to complete
the installation. Do not attach any cables to the drive while it is in its
static-shielded bag.
•
Wear a grounded wrist strap that is properly connected to earth ground
or ground yourself frequently by touching the metal chassis of a power
supply that is plugged into a grounded outlet when handling the drive
and throughout the entire installation procedure.
•
Handle the drive by its edges or frame only.
•
The drive is extremely fragile—handle it with care. Do not press down
on the drive top cover.
•
Always rest the drive on a padded, antistatic surface until you mount
it in the computer.
•
Do not touch the connector pins or the printed circuit board. Do not
touch the printed circuit cable between the circuit board and the
head/disc assembly.
•
Do not remove the factory-installed labels from the drive or cover them
with additional labels. If you do, you void the warranty. Some factory-
installed labels contain information needed to service the drive. Others
are used to seal out dirt and contamination.
