Procedure
1. Attach the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap.
Attention:
v Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to the front ESD jack, to the rear ESD jack, or to
an unpainted metal surface of your hardware to prevent the electrostatic discharge from damaging
your hardware.
v When you use an ESD wrist strap, follow all electrical safety procedures. An ESD wrist strap is
used for static control. It does not increase or decrease your risk of receiving electric shock when
using or working on electrical equipment.
v If you do not have an ESD wrist strap, just prior to removing the product from ESD packaging
and installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface of the system for a
minimum of 5 seconds.
2. Remove the disk drive and fan card. For instructions, see "Removing the disk drive and fan card
from the 8335-GTB" on page 39.
3. Locate the front USB cable and connector (A) and the power switch and cable (B). They connect
between the system backplane and the power switch along the inside of the system. See Figure 64 on
