Quick installation procedure

 

 

 

The following are needed to install a Serial ATA (SATA) drive to a system:

SATA capable motherboard or controller card

SATA hard drive

SATA cable (1 meter or less in length)

Handling precautions

Set the drive down gently to prevent damage from impact or vibration.

Do not open the ESD bag containing the drive until needed.

Handle the drive carefully by the edges. Do not touch the exposed printed circuit board or any electronic components.

Do not press on the top or bottom of the drive.

Before handling the drive, discharge any static electricity from yourself and your clothing. With one hand, touch an unpainted metal surface on your computer chassis, then touch the ESD bag with the other hand. Remain in contact with the chassis and the bag for a minimum of two seconds.

Mounting Recommendations

The drive will operate in all axes (6 directions). Performance and error rate will stay within specification limits if the drive is operated in the other orientations from which it was formatted.

For reliable operation, the drive must be mounted in the system securely enough to prevent excessive motion or vibration of the drive during seek operation or spindle rotation, using appropriate screws or equivalent mounting hardware.

The recommended mounting screw torque is 0.6 - 1.0 Nm (6-10 Kgf.cm).
