Important User Information
Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment.
Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication
SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at
http://www.literature.rockwellautomation.com) describes some important differences between solid state
equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also because of the
wide variety of uses for solid state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must
satisfy themselves that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages
resulting from the use or application of this equipment.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. Because of the many
variables and requirements associated with any particular installation, Rockwell Automation, Inc. cannot
assume responsibility or liability for actual use based on the examples and diagrams.
No patent liability is assumed by Rockwell Automation, Inc. with respect to use of information, circuits,
equipment, or software described in this manual.
Reproduction of the contents of this manual, in whole or in part, without written permission of Rockwell

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Hard Disk Drive (HDD) 3
ATTENTION
Follow these precautions to prevent ESD discharge.
• Transport the computer and replacement parts in static-safe containers such as
conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free
stations.
• Cover workstations with approved static-dissipating material. Use a wrist strap
connected to the work surface and properly grounded (earthed) tools and equipment.
• Keep work area free of nonconductive material, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids
and foam packing.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Always handle the hard disk drive (HDD) by its metal frame and do not touch its
internal components.
• Always hold components with a printed circuit board (PCB) by its edges and lay it
with the assembly-side down.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive devices or
microcircuitry. Observe proper packaging and grounding techniques to prevent
damage.
Voltage Precautions
The computers contain line voltages. Disconnect all power to the computer before you install
or remove system components.
SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect power from the computer before removing components. Failure to
disconnect power could result in severe electrical shock and/or damage the
computer.

Before You Begin
Review the specifications of a new component before installing it to make sure it is
compatible with the computer. Record the model and serial number, and any other pertinent
information of new components for future reference.
ATTENTION
To avoid voiding your product warranty, use only Rockwell Automation
Allen-Bradley approved replacement parts and accessories.
Required Tools
These tools are required to install a hard disk drive (HDD).
• #2 Phillips screwdriver
• Antistatic wrist band
Pre-installation Procedure
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Perform this pre-installation procedure before removing the side cover or accessing a
hardware component.
1. Turn off the computer and all peripherals connected to it.
2. Disconnect power from the computer to avoid exposure to high energy levels.
If necessary, label each one to expedite reassembly.
3. Disconnect telecommunication cables to avoid exposure to shock hazards from
ringing voltages.
Publication 6177R-IN002B-EN-P - November 2009
Make sure to read and understand the entire installation or removal procedure
before you begin to configure the computer hardware.
When installing hardware components that require access to internal
components, first back up all computer data to avoid loss of data.
