Safety and installation

•
Changing the hard disk must only be performed by a person
who is experienced in repairing and upgrading PCs.
•
Should you not possess the necessary skills, call in a techni-
cian.
•
Hard disks are extremely fragile. Never drop or shake the hard
drive - this could irreversibly damage the data on the hard disk.
Be especially careful when transporting the hard disk as we
provide no guarantee for this type of damage.
•
The hard drive can become warm after prolonged use.
•
Never open the casing of your hard disk, if you do the hard disk
will no longer be covered by our guarantee.
•
Do not let children play unattended with electrical devices.
•
The hard disk is not designed for use in commercial applica-
tions/situations.
•
After transportation, wait until the equipment is at room tem-
perature before turning it on. If there is a large difference in tem-
perature or humidity, damp can build up through condensation
and cause an electrical short circuit.
•
Keep your hard disk and all connected equipment away from
damp and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight in order to pre-
vent operational problems.
•
In order to avoid damage from a fall, place the hard disk on a
stable and level surface which does not vibrate.
•
For additional safety, we recommend using power connection
through a power surge protection unit in order to protect your
equipment from power surges and lightning strikes.
