4. Customizing the Viking FS-

1600 Series NAS Appliance

Before you install any computer component, we recommend that you read the following sections. These sections contain important ESD precautions along with pre-installation and post-installation instructions.

4.1.Preventing Static Electricity Discharge

The components inside your computer are extremely sensitive to static electricity, also known as electrostatic discharge (ESD).

•ESD can permanently damage electrostatic discharge-sensitive components in your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance. Prevent ESD damage by following ESD guidelines every time you open the case.

•To avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and moving parts, turn off your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance and unplug the power cord and network cables before opening the case.

Before opening the case, follow these guidelines:

•Turn off your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance.

•Wear a grounding wrist strap (available at most electronics stores) and attach it to a bare metal part of your computer.

•Touch a bare metal surface on the back of the computer.

•Unplug the power cord and the network cables.

Before working with computer components, follow these guidelines:

•Avoid static-causing surfaces such as carpeted floors, plastic, and packing foam.

•Remove components from their antistatic bags only when you are ready to use them. Do not lay components on the outside of antistatic bags because only the inside of the bags provide electrostatic protection.

4.2.Expanding Connectivity

Ports allow you connect peripheral devices to your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance. For instructions on how to connect different external devices to the appliance, see your peripheral device user’s guide for instructions.
