Before You Begin

Thank you for your interest in Maxtor hard disk drives. This manual provides technical information for

OEM engineers and systems integrators regarding the installation and use of Maxtor hard drives. Drive

repair should be performed only at an authorized repair center. For repair information, contact the Maxtor

Product Support Center at 1-800-2MAXTOR.

CAUTION: Maxtor hard drives are precision products. Failure to follow these precautions and guidelines out-

lined here may lead to product failure, damage and invalidation of all warranties.

1BEFORE unpacking or handling a drive, take all proper electro-static discharge (ESD) precau-

tions, including personnel and equipment grounding. Stand-alone drives are sensitive to ESD

damage.

2BEFORE removing drives from their packing material, allow them to reach room tempera-

ture.

3 During handling, NEVER drop, jar, or bump a drive.

4 Once a drive is removed from the Maxtor shipping container, IMMEDIATELY secure the

drive through its mounting holes within a chassis. Otherwise, store the drive on a padded,

grounded, antistatic surface.

5NEVER switch DC power onto the drive by plugging an electrically live DC source cable into

the drive's connector. NEVER connect a live bus to the drive's interface connector.

6ELECTRICAL GROUNDING - For proper operation, the drive must be securely fastened to a

device bay that provides a suitable electrical ground to the drive baseplate.

Please do not remove or cover up Maxtor factory-installed drive labels. They contain information required

should the drive ever need repair. Thank you for your interest in Maxtor hard disk drives. This

manual provides technical information for OEM engineers and systems integrators regarding

the installation and use of Maxtor hard drives. Drive repair should be performed only at an

authorized repair center. For repair information, contact the Maxtor Customer Service Cen-

ter at 800-2MAXTOR or 1-303-678-2015.
