Moving your computer

Take the following precautions before moving your computer.
1. Back up all files and data from the hard disk.
Operating systems can vary in the way they perform backup procedures.
Refer to your operating system documentation for information about
software backup.
2. Remove all media (diskettes, compact discs, tapes, and so on) from the
drives.
3. Turn off the computer and all attached devices. Your hard disk drive
automatically parks the read/write heads in a nondata area. This process
prevents damage to the hard disk.
4. Unplug the power cords from electrical outlets.
5. Note where you have attached your cables to the rear of the computer; then
remove them.
6. If you saved the original shipping cartons and packing materials, use them
to pack the units. If you are using different cartons, cushion the computer
components to avoid damage.
