Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40 hard drives are precision products. Failure to

follow these precautions and guidelines outlined here may lead to

product failure, damage and invalidation of all warranties.

BEFORE unpacking or handling a drive, take all proper electro-static discharge (ESD) precautions, including personnel and equipment grounding. Stand-alone drives are sensitive to ESD damage.

BEFORE removing drives from their packing material, allow them to reach room temperature.

During handling, NEVER drop, jar, or bump a drive.

Once a drive is removed from the Maxtor shipping container, IMMEDIATELY secure the drive through its mounting holes within a chassis. Otherwise, store the drive on a padded, grounded, antistatic surface.

NEVER switch DC power onto the drive by plugging an electrically live DC source cable into the drive's connector. NEVER connect a live bus to the drive's interface connector.

ELECTRICAL GROUNDING - For proper operation, the drive must be securely fastened to a device bay that provides a suitable electrical ground to the drive baseplate.

Please do not remove or cover up Maxtor factory-installed drive labels. They contain information required should the drive ever need repair.
