Support Notes: We recommend you make a backup of
important information on your system’s current hard
drive(s) prior to installing new hardware or software.
When handling computer products, you must take care to prevent
components from being damaged by static electricity. Before
opening your computer or removing parts from their packages,
always ground yourself first by touching a metal part of the com-
puter, such as a port access cover, and work in an area free of
static electricity; avoid carpeted areas. Handle all electronic com-
ponents by their edges, and avoid touching connector traces and
component pins.
