Replacement Preliminaries 4.3 Preventing Damage to Removable Drives Removable drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to the QuickDock, damage to a removable drive, or loss of information, observe the following precautions: ■ Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the system (computer and QuickDock).
Replacement Preliminaries 4.4 Preventing Electrostatic Damage Many electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases, the discharge contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.
Replacement Preliminaries 4.5 Packaging and Transporting Precautions Use the following grounding precautions when packaging and transporting equipment: ■ To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe containers, such as tubes, bags, or boxes. ■ Protect all electrostatic-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or packaging.
Replacement Preliminaries 4.6 Workstation Precautions Use the following grounding precautions at workstations: ■ Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material Table 4-2, “Static-Shielding Materials” (refer to ■ Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded tools and equipment. ■...
Replacement Preliminaries 4.7 Grounding Equipment and Methods Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation. ■ When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords.
