(Example)

Don’t install or remove a PCA or connect or disconnect a cable or connector plug when the drive is powered. This may give you an electric shock.

The main alert messages in the text are also listed in the “Important Alert Items.”

Operating Environment

This product is designed to be used in offices or computer rooms.

For details regarding the operating environment of use, refer to the Product Manual (C141-E225).

Hot Plug

These drives support Hot Plug which is based on Serial ATA II Extension to Serial ATA 1.0a Specification.

However, the disk drive installation and removal notes on safety precautions with regard to hot-plugging vary depending on the specific requirements and environment-related conditions of the system to which the drive is connected by hot-plugging.

When using the drive under general conditions of use (i.e., without hotplugging), observe the important alert messages and notes on safety precautions given in this manual.

For the electrical recommendation to the host system which supports hot-plugging with this drives, refer to Section 5.1.6 of the MHV2080BS, MHV2060BS, MHV2040BS Disk Drives Product Manual.
