Safety Information and Technical Specifications
To avoid personal injury and property damage, please carefully
follow all the safety steps listed below when accessing your
system or handling the components:
ESD Safety Guidelines
Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To
prevent damage to your system, it is important to handle it very carefully. The
following measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from
ESD.
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing a component from the
antistatic bag.
• Handle the RAID card by its edges only; do not touch its components,
peripheral chips, memory modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the card and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in
use.
General Safety Guidelines
• Always disconnect power cables before installing or removing any components from the computer, including the SATA 813L Backplane.
• Disconnect the power cable before installing or removing any cable from
the SATA 813L Backplane.
• Make sure that the SATA 813L Backplane is securely and properly
installed on the motherboard to prevent damage to the system due to
power shortage.
