Read “Electrical Safety” on page 75 and “Handling
Static-Sensitive Devices” on page 77 (or your safety booklet).
Read the documentation that comes with the internal drive.
Opened the server cover (see “Preparing to Install Options”
on page 78).

2. Touch the static-protective bag containing the drive to any
unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the drive
from the bag.
