electricity when installing or removing any optional devices.

Select a suitable work space

 If you work with the server on a carpet where static electricity is likely to be generated, be sure to take
anti-static measures beforehand.
Use a work table

 Wear anti-static shoes.
 Take off any jewels (a ring, bracelet, or wrist watch) before working with the server.
Handling of components
 Keep any component in an anti-static bag until you actually install it to the server.
