static electricity from your body before you touch any of your computer’s electronic
components. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface on the

the drive on a surface, such as a foam pad, that will sufficiently cushion it.

desktop to tower, you must use an optional kit available from Dell. See "Product

With the purchase of an optional kit from Dell, you can change the
