Users should use caution exposing any electronic components to uncontrolled chemical pollutants and corrosive chemicals as electronic drive component reliability can be affected by the installation environment. The silver, copper, nickel and gold films used in Seagate products are especially sensitive to the presence of sulfide, chloride, and nitrate contaminants. In addition, electronic components should never be exposed to condensing water on the surface of the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) or exposed to an ambient relative humidity greater than 95%. Materials used in cabinet fabrication, such as vulcanized rubber, that can outgas corrosive compounds should be minimized or eliminated. The useful life of any electronic equipment may be extended by replacing materials near circuitry with sulfide-free alternatives.

Configuring and mounting the drive
This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive.
3. 1
Handling and static discharge precautions
After unpacking, and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic discharge (ESD) hazards. Observe the following standard handling and static-discharge precautions: Caution: · The SeaShellTM replaces electrostatic discharge (ESD) bags. The SeaShell package is a shock-ribbed, transparent clamshell enclosure that limits a drive's exposure to ESD and also protects against external shocks and stresses. The design permits attaching cables, software loading and label/barcode scanning without removing the drive from the SeaShell. Keep the drive in the SeaShell package until you are ready for installation. · Before handling the drive, put on a grounded wrist strap, or ground yourself frequently by touching the metal chassis of a computer that is plugged into a grounded outlet. Wear a grounded wrist strap throughout the entire installation procedure. · Always rest the drive on a padded, antistatic surface until you mount it in the computer. · Do not touch the connector pins or the printed circuit board. · Do not remove the factory-installed labels from the drive or cover them with additional labels. Some factory-installed labels contain information needed to service the drive. Other labels are used to seal out dirt and contamination.

Breather filter hole precautions
This section contains information regarding the precautions which should be taken regarding the breather filter hole in Seagate hard disc drives. Proper precautions should be taken to ensure full functionality and prevent possible damage to the drive.
Breather Hole Do not cover or seal.
Figure 3.
Breather filter hole location
Caution: Do not cover, seal, or insert any object into this hole. This hole has two purposes: · To allow condensation inside the hard disc to escape · To allow air pressure inside the hard disc to equalize with ambient pressure Note. If this hole is covered, sealed, or penetrated by any object, the drive reliability may be compromised and could lead to permanent damage--doing so voids the warranty.
