Disk unit

Use this procedure to service the disk unit.

1. Use the following precautions whenever you handle electronic components or cables.

   • Attach a wrist strap to an unpainted metal surface of your hardware to prevent electrostatic discharge from damaging your hardware.
   • If you do not have a wrist strap, just prior to removing the product from ESD packaging and installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface of the system for a minimum of 5 seconds.
   • Keep all electronic components in the shipping container or envelope until you are ready to install them.
   • If you remove, then reinstall an electronic component, temporarily place the component on an ESD pad or blanket, if available.
