To avoid damage, do not expose the device to temperatures outside:

 

-

Environmental (Operating)

 

-

Temperature (ºF): 41º — 95º

 

-

Temperature (ºC): 5º — 35º

-

Protect your device from excessive exposure to dust during use or storage. Dust can build 

up inside the device, increasing the risk of damage or malfunction.

 

-

Do not block any ventilation openings on the device. These help to keep the device cool 

during operation. Blocking the ventilation openings may cause damage to the device and 

cause an increased risk of short-circuiting or fire.

 

-

Read this guide carefully and follow the recommended steps for assembly.

 

-

Use proper anti-static precautions while installing this device. Failure to do so can cause 

damage to your drive and/or the PCIe enclosure.

 

-

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the device. To avoid any risk of electrical shock, 

fire, short-circuiting or dangerous emissions, never insert any metallic object into the 

device. If it appears to be malfunctioning, please contact technical support.

 

-

Never expose your device to rain or use it near water or in damp or wet conditions. Never 

place objects containing liquids on the device, as they may spill into its openings. Doing so 

increases the risk of electrical shock, short-circuiting, fire or personal injury.
