Handling Hard Drives
Hard drives are sensitive electromechanical devices that can
be permanently damaged through improper handling. The
packaging provided with a hard drive is designed to protect it
from accidental drops. HP recommends that hard drives
remain in their original packaging until installation. Drives
should be handled with care and never dropped, even from
short distances.
