Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install components into
the system.

The system motherboard comes with an onboard standby power LED.
When lit, this LED indicates that the system is ON, in sleep mode or in
soft-off mode, and not powered OFF. Unplug the power cable from the
power outlet and make sure that the standby power LED is OFF before
installing any system component.

Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to
a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling
components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.

Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded
antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.
