Gateway 8450R - Manual (Page 27)

26 Case Access
Opening the case
The only components that are accessible from the outside of the chassis are
the front panel controls and indicator lights, the hot-swap power supply
modules, the slimline diskette and CD drives, and the hot-swap hard drives.
To access the hot-swap drives, the removable media drives, or the front panel
you must open the bezel. To work on the internal components of the server,
you must open the chassis.
Because the components inside the server are extremely sensitive to static
electricity, make sure you follow the precautions at the beginning of this
chapter to avoid static electricity damage.
Only qualified personnel should open the server for maintenance. If you are
qualified to maintain the server yourself, make sure you are properly grounded
before opening the server chassis.
Important All references to front, back, left, or right on the server are
based on the server being in a normal, upright position,
as viewed from the front.
Caution Avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and
moving parts by turning off your server and unplugging the
power cord and modem cable (if installed) before removing
the chassis cover.
