Before You Begin

Warning: The DC push-button on/off switch on the front panel does not turn off the system AC power. Before doing the procedures in this chapter, make sure that your system is powered off and unplug the AC power cord from the back of the chassis. Failure to disconnect power before opening your system can result in personal injury and equipment damage.

Static Precautions

An electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, option boards, and other components. You can provide ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground when handling system components.

Electronic devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. To prevent damage, keep them in their protective packaging when they are not installed in your system.
