Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives,
add-in cards, and other components. Do the procedures
described in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If
such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD
protection by wearing an anti-static wrist strap and
attaching it to a metal part of the chassis.
Add-in cards can be extremely sensitive to ESD and
always require careful handling. After removing the card
from its protective wrapper or from the computer, place the
card flat on a grounded, static-free surface, component
side up. Use a conductive foam pad (f available, but not
the board wrapper Do not slide the board over any
surface.
For proper cooling and airflow, always close the chassis
before turning on the computer system. Operating the
computer system without the chassis closed can damage
system parts.
