Handling a hard disk drive

To protect a hard disk drive during installation, observe the following
precautions:

v Keep the drive in its static-protective bag until you are ready to install the

drive in your ThinkPad computer. If you take the drive out of the
static-protective bag, place the static-protective bag on a flat, padded surface,
and then place the drive on the bag with the component side facing up.

v Handle the drive with care. Dropping or jarring the drive can damage the

components inside the drive housing.

v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity buildup.
v Do not subject the drive to physical shocks.
v Handle the drive by the edges.
v Do not touch any exposed components on the drive.
v Do not apply pressure to the cover of the drive.

Attention: The hard disk drive is very sensitive. Incorrect handling can cause
damage and permanent loss of data on the drive.
