Caution:
Whenever you work inside the computer, electrostatic discharge can permanently damage your equipment. Always ground yourself by touching the metal portion of the rear panel before beginning these procedures. We strongly recommend using an antistatic wrist strap attached to the “FG Terminal” on the left side of the rear panel. See illustration in Chapter 2, Back View.
