• Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static-
sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with
an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system.

supported by the server. Make sure that you have the required firmware or a copy of the pre-existing
firmware before you proceed.
