precautions to avoid ESD-related problems:
■ Leave the HBA in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it in the system.
■ Always use a properly fitted and grounded wrist strap or other suitable ESD
protection when handling the HBA, and observe proper ESD grounding
techniques.
■ Hold the HBA by the edge of the PCB, not by the connectors.
