5 Electrostatic discharge Electrostatic discharge is the release of static electricity when two objects come into contact-for example, the shock you receive when you walk across the carpet and touch a metal door knob. A discharge of static electricity from fingers or other electrostatic conductors may damage electronic components. IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the product, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions: ● If removal or installation instructions direct you to unplug the product, first be sure that it is properly grounded. ● Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you are ready to install them. ● Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible. ● Use nonmagnetic tools. ● Before handling components, discharge static electricity by touching an unpainted metal surface. ● If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.

Electrostatic discharge is the release of static electricity when two objects come into contact—for
example, the shock you receive when you walk across the carpet and touch a metal door knob.
A discharge of static electricity from fingers or other electrostatic conductors may damage electronic
components.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent damage to the product, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe
these precautions:
●
If removal or installation instructions direct you to unplug the product, first be sure that it is
properly grounded.
●
Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you are ready to install them.
●
Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible.
●
Use nonmagnetic tools.
●
Before handling components, discharge static electricity by touching an unpainted metal surface.
●
If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.
