Mounting the drive
Important Precautions:
• Make sure your computer is turned off before beginning in-
stallation.
• Although switched off, your computer must remain plugged
into an electrical outlet with an earth ground. This minimizes
the possibility of damage from static discharge.
• Static electrical charges can accumulate quickly on people,
clothing and synthetic materials. The electrostatic fields due
to these charges when brought in close proximity to suscep-
tible circuit assemblies and components, can result in de-
graded reliability or immediate failure of the affected compo-
nent or assembly.
• Always wear a grounded wrist strap. Attach the wrist strap to
the metal chassis of your computer. Use the antistatic pad as
your work surface, and avoid installation in areas with static-
inducing carpets.
1. Begin by removing the cover of the computer. Follow the
instructions in your computer manual. Systems that use
"WC" drives probably do not require cover removal, as the
drives are mounted in a module that slides into place and
plugs in.
