connectors and bay of the hard disk drive were not designed for frequent
changes, or drive swapping.

Attention
Handling a hard disk drive
v Do not drop the drive or subject it to physical shocks. Put the drive on
a material, such as soft cloth, that absorbs the physical shock.

permanent loss of data on the hard disk. Before removing the hard disk
drive, make a backup copy of all the information on the hard disk, and
then turn the computer off. Never remove the drive while the system is
operating, in standby mode, or in hibernation mode.
