Installation precautionsBefore you install any server component, we recommend that you read
the following sections. These sections contain important ESD
precautions along with preinstallation and post-installation
instructions.
ESD precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage the processor(s),
motherboard, disk drive(s), expansion board(s), or other components.
Always observe the following precautions before you install server
components:
1 Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until
you are ready to install it.
2 Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the
server before handling components. If a wrist strap is not
available, maintain contact with the server throughout any
procedure requiring ESD protection.
