This section provides cautions on handling the hard disk drive.
Cautions
To prevent faults, note the following.
Data is read from the hard disk drive or written to it while the internal disk that stores data is
rotating at high speeds. Since it is a very delicate device, do not carry the PC with the power
on or do not apply shock or vibration to the PC.
Do not use or store the hard disk drive in an area where temperature changes sharply in an
extremely wide range.
Do not place the hard disk drive in an area exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater.
Do not use or store the hard disk drive in an area subjected to shock or vibration.
Do not use or store the hard disk drive in a humid or dusty area.
Do not use or store the hard disk drive near a magnet or device that generates a strong magnetic
field.
Do not disassemble or break down the hard disk drive.
Keep them free from condensation or moisture.
Point
Improper handling may damage the data stored on the disk. Always make backup copies of
important data.
Even hard disks of the same type have different capacities. It is recommended to back up data
not in units of hard disks but in units of files or sectors.
