## Prevent ESD Damage

Before You Begin

Use the following procedure to prevent electrostatic discharge damage when you are accessing the server modules and server module options.

| Caution - Printed circuit boards and disk drives contain electronic components that are extremely sensitive to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static from your clothes or the work environment can destroy components. Do not touch the components themselves or any metal parts without taking proper antistatic precautions.

1. Use an antistatic mat or similar surface.

   When installing an option such as a DIMM or disk drive, place those static-sensitive parts on an antistatic surface. You can use the following items as an antistatic surface:

   - Bag used to wrap a part

   - Shipping container used to package a part

   - Sun ESD mat (part number 250-1088, available through your sales representative)

   - Disposable ESD mat (shipped with some parts and options)

2. Attach one end of the wrist strap to the chassis sheet metal and the other end to your wrist.

   Refer to the instructions that come with the strap.
