¡Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
¡Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their
antistatic bags until ready for use.
¡Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from
the antistatic bag.
¡Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your
clothing, which may retain a charge even if you are wearing a wrist
strap.
¡Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components,
peripheral chips, memory modules or contacts.
¡When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
¡Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags
when not in use.
¡For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides
excellent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the
mounting fasteners and the motherboard.
¡After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up
and secure it to the rack unit with the retention screws after ensur-
ing that all connections have been made.
