Identifying the Chassis, Routine Care, and Disassembly Preparation
5.5.4 Cables and Connectors
Most cables used in the unit are flat, flexible cables. You just handle these cables with care to
avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to seat or unseat the cables during insertion or
removal from the connector. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases,
avoid bending or twisting the cables, and ensure that the cables are routed in such a way that they
cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced.
Ä
CAUTION: When servicing this computer, ensure that you place cables in their proper location during
the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.
5.5.5 Hard Drives
Handle hard drives as delicate, precision components, avoiding all physical shock and vibration.
This applies to failed drives as well as replacement spares.
If you must mail a drive, place the drive in a bubble-pack mailer or other suitable protective
packaging and label the package “Fragile: Handle With Care.
Do not remove hard drives from the shipping package for storage. Keep hard drives in their
protective packaging until they are mounted in the CPU.
Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.
If you are inserting or removing a hard drive, turn off the computer. Do not remove a hard
drive while the computer is on or in standby mode.
Before handling a drive, discharge yourself of static electricity. While handling a drive,
avoid touching the connector. For more information about preventing electrostatic damage,
refer to
Section 5.2, “Electrostatic Discharge Information.
Do not use excessive force when inserting a drive.
Avoid exposing a hard drive to liquids, temperature extremes, or products that have magnetic
fields, such as monitors or speakers.
