Notes on Use

J

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-in

cards, and other components. Do the procedures described in the

“Upgrading and Maintaining Your Sony PC” section only at an ESD

workstation. If such a station is not available, do not work in a
carpeted area, and do not handle materials that produce or hold static
electricity (cellophane wrappers, for example). Ground yourself by
maintaining contact with an unpainted metal portion of the chassis
while performing the procedure.

□ When removing a slot cover, be careful not to damage components on

the system board or add~in cards. You may need to temporarily
remove add-in cards that are next to the slot cover you want to
remove.

On Using the Hard Disk Drive

or shock.

disk drive.

of the diskette.
