PROTECTION
:
ESD can damage disk drives, add-in boards, and other
components. This server can withstand normal levels of
environmental ESD while hot-swapping SCSI hard disk
drives. However, we recommend doing all procedures in
this manual only at an ESD workstation. If one is not
available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing
an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground of the
server—any unpainted metal surface—when handling
components.
