Traveling and shipping For best results, follow these traveling and shipping tips: ● Prepare the device for traveling or shipping: ◦ Back up your information. ◦ Remove all external media cards, such as digital cards. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the device, damage to a drive, or loss of information, remove the media from a drive before removing the drive from a drive bay, and before shipping, storing, or traveling with a drive. ◦ Turn off and then disconnect all external devices. ◦ Shut down the device. ● Take along a backup of your information. Keep the backup separate from the device. ● When traveling by air, carry the device as hand luggage, and do not check it in with the rest of your bags. CAUTION: Avoid exposing a drive to magnetic fields. Security devices with magnetic fields include airport walk-through devices and security wands. The airport security devices that check carry-on luggage, such as conveyor belts, use X-rays instead of magnetism and do not damage a drive. ● In-flight device use is at the discretion of the airline. If you plan to use the device during a flight, check with the airline in advance. ● If the device will be unused and disconnected from external power for more than 2 weeks, remove the battery pack and store it separately. ● If you are shipping the device or a drive, use suitable protective packaging and label the package "FRAGILE." ● If your device is equipped with an 802.11b/g device, a Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) device, or a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) device, or a similar wireless device, the use of such a device may be restricted in some environments. These restrictions may apply onboard aircraft, in hospitals, near explosives, and in hazardous locations. If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of a particular device, ask for authorization to use it before you turn it on. ● If you are traveling internationally, follow these suggestions: ◦ Check the device-related customs regulations for each country or region on your itinerary. ◦ Check the power cord and adapter requirements for each location in which you plan to use the device. Voltage, frequency, and plug configurations vary. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not attempt to power the device with a voltage converter kit sold for appliances. 84 Chapter 18 Routine Care
