WD hard drives are precision instruments and 
should be handled with care during unpacking and 
installation. Hard drives can be damaged by rough 
handling, shock and vibration, or electrostatic 
discharge (ESD). Be aware of the following 
precautions:
• This product contains no user-serviceable parts; 

refer servicing to WD-authorized personnel only.

• Do not unpack your hard drive until you are ready 

to install it. Your hard drive is packaged in an anti-
static bag.

• To avoid ESD problems, ground yourself by 

touching the metal chassis of the computer before 
handling the hard drive. Articles of clothing 
generate static electricity. Do not allow clothing to 
come in direct contact with the hard drive or 
circuit board components.

• Handle the hard drive by its sides only. Avoid 

touching the circuit board components on the 
bottom of the hard drive.

• Do not drop, shake, or knock down the hard drive.
• Do not stack hard drives or stand your WD hard 

drive on its edge.

up your existing data.

3. Before handling the hard drive or any other 

components, discharge static electricity by 
touching the metal chassis of your computer or by 
using an anti-static wrist strap.
