Safety Information
This chapter describes installing additional or optional hardware to your HP 9000 rp3410 and HP 9000
rp3440 servers. Use care to prevent injury and equipment damage when performing these procedures.
Voltages may be present within the server. Many assemblies are sensitive to damage by electrostatic
discharge.
To ensure safe handling of components and to prevent injury to personnel, or damage to the HP server,
adhere to the following procedures:
• If removing or installing a hot-swap or hot-plug item, follow the instructions provided in this guide
• If installing a hot-swap item when power is applied (fans are running), reinstall the server cover
immediately to prevent overheating
• If installing an assembly that is not hot-swappable, disconnect the power cable(s) from the server
external power connector(s)
WARNING Ensure that the system is powered-down and all power sources have been
disconnected from the server prior to removing or replacing a removable media
drive.
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an AC
power source is connected. This voltage is present even when the main power
switch is in the off position.
Failure to observe this warning could result in personal injury or damage to
equipment.
• Do not wear loose clothing that may snag or catch on the server or on other items
• Do not wear clothing subject to static charge build-up, such as wool or synthetic materials
• If installing an internal assembly, wear an antistatic wrist strap and use a grounding mat, such as those
included in the Electrically Conductive Field Service Grounding Kit (P/N 9300-1155)
