Never turn off or reset your computer while a disk drive light is
l
on. This can destroy data stored on disk or make a whole disk
unusable.

l
before you switch it on again. Turning the power off and on
rapidly can damage the computer's circuitry.

connected to the computer. (Always turn on the monitor and
any peripheral devices before you turn on the computer.)
