Before operating mass storage devices:
• Mount the device.
Typically, you must mount a device before you can begin
using it. You mount a device while the system is in operating
system mode. Refer to your operating system documentation
for information about how to mount a device.
• Familiarize yourself with the care and maintenance required
by the device.
These tasks are described in the section, Maintaining Mass
Storage Media and Devices, later in this chapter.
