WARNING: ESD Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage the processor, hard drives, main board, memory
modules (RAM), and other BlackArmor components. Always observe the following
precautions before replacing a hard drive:
•
Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you are ready to install it.
•
Do not touch the component pins, leads, or circuitry.
•
Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the system before handling
components. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain contact with the system throughout
any procedure requiring ESD protection.
•
Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly
aids and foam packing.
