3.3.5 Note about SATA interface cable connection
Take note of the following precaution about plugging a SATA interface cable into
the SATA interface connector of the disk drive and plugging the connector into a
host receptacle:
When plugging together the disk drive SATA interface connector
and the host receptacle or SATA interface cable connector, do not
apply more than 10 kgf of force in the connection direction once
they are snugly and securely in position.
Removing the cable without releasing the SATA interface Latch
may lead to connector damage and the loss of the Latch function.
Accordingly, be sure to remove the cable while releasing the Latch.
