Safety Information and Technical Specifications
1. Safety Guidelines
To avoid personal injury and property damage, please carefully
follow all the safety steps listed below when accessing yoursystem or handling the components:

ESD Safety Guidelines
Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To
prevent damage to your system, it is important to handle it very carefully. The
following measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment fromESD.
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing a component from theantistatic bag.
• Handle the RAID card by its edges only; do not touch its components,peripheral chips, memory modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the card and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not inuse.

General Safety Guidelines• Always disconnect power cables before installing or removing any components from the computer, including the Serial Attached SCSI 814 Backplane.
• Disconnect the power cable before installing or removing any cable fromthe Serial Attached SCSI 814 Backplane.
•Make sure that the Serial Attached SCSI 814 Backplane is securely andproperly installed on the motherboard to prevent damage to the system
due to power shortage.

An Important Note to the User• All images and layouts shown in this user's guide are based upon thelatest PCB Reversion available at the time of publishing. The card
you've received may or may not look exactly the same as the images
or the layouts shown in this manual.
