Installing a Hard Drive Warning! Hard Drives should be handled carefully, especially when they’re transported. If you’re not careful with your drives, you may lose data as a result. Make sure that you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when you install any computer component. If an anti-static strap isn’t available, touch a large grounded metal surface for several seconds to discharge any built-up static electricity. 1.
