Doing so will impact cooling of the enclosure and may cause data

loss.

• Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper

anti-static protection.

• Have a copy of the product user guide available for reference. You

can download a copy of the user guide from the product support

page on the HP website.
