Installation
WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly
grounded before opening your computer case or touching your PCI Express card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static
strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by
touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI Express card by
its edges and not the gold connectors.
Make sure that your system is unplugged and you are grounded.
