Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Handling Drives Before handling a drive, discharge static electricity by touching an exterior unpainted metal surface of a device that is connected to an electrical outlet by a grounding plug.
Electrostatic Discharge ■ Before touching an electronic component, discharge static electricity by using one of the grounding methods described later in this chapter. If you must leave the area during the procedure, remember to reground yourself before resuming the procedure. ■ Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible. ■ If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.
