CAUTION: To prevent loss or damage to the tablet PC or a drive:
■ Handle a drive carefully. Do not drop it.
■ Excessive force can damage drive connectors. When you insert a
drive, use only enough force to seat the drive.
■ Do not spray a drive with cleaning fluid or other liquid or expose it
to temperature extremes.
■ Do not remove the primary hard drive (the hard drive in the hard
drive bay) except for repair or replacement.
■ Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components.
To prevent electrostatic damage to the tablet PC or a drive:
❏ Discharge yourself from static electricity by touching a
grounded metal object before handling a drive.
❏ Avoid touching the connectors on a drive.
For more information about preventing electrostatic damage, refer
to the Regulatory and Safety Notices guide.
■ Avoid exposing a drive to devices with magnetic fields. Security
devices with magnetic fields include airport walk-through devices
and security wands. The airport security devices that check carry-on
luggage, usually while it is placed on
a conveyor belt, use x-rays
instead of magnetism and will not damage a drive.
■ If you mail a drive, ship it in packaging that protects it from shock,
vibration, temperature, and high humidity. Label the package
“FRAGILE.”
