B 17 2. 0 Configuring and mounting the drive This section contains the specifications and instructions for configuring and mounting the drive. 2. 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. · The drive is enclosed in a black, flexible cover called a SeaShield®. Do not remove this permanent cover--it protects the drive from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and minor impact damage. The soft SeaShield cover also includes installation instructions and jumper settings. Removing the SeaShield voids the warranty. · Keep the drive in its static-shielded bag until you are ready to complete the installation. Do not attach any cables to the drive while it is in its static-shielded bag. · 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. · Handle the drive by its edges or frame only. Do not press down on the drive top cover. · 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.
