4.3 Preventing Damage to
Removable Drives
Removable drives are fragile components that must be handled
with care. To prevent damage to the tablet PC, damage to a
removable drive, or loss of information, observe the following
precautions:
Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the
tablet PC. If you are unsure whether the tablet PC is off or
in hibernation, turn on the tablet PC, and then shut it down.
Before removing a diskette drive or optical drive, ensure that
a diskette or disc is not in the drive. Ensure that the optical
drive tray is closed.
Before handling a drive, ensure that you discharge any static
electricity. While handling a drive, avoid touching the
connector.
Handle drives on surfaces that have at least 2.54 cm (1 inch)
of shock-proof foam.
Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.
After removing a hard drive, optical drive, or diskette drive,
place it in a static-proof bag.
Avoid exposing a hard drive to products that have magnetic
fields, such as monitors or speakers.
Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or liquids.
If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble pack
mailer or other suitable form of protective packaging and
label the package "FRAGILE: Handle With Care."
