Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-in cards; and other
components. Do the procedures described here 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 continuous contact with an
unpainted metal portion of the chassis while performing the procedure.
