Customizing the Viking FS-
1600 Series NAS Appliance
Before you install any computer component, we recommend that you read
the following sections. These sections contain important ESD precautions
along with pre-installation and post-installation instructions.
4.1. Preventing Static Electricity Discharge
The components inside your computer are extremely sensitive to static
electricity, also known as electrostatic discharge (ESD).
•
ESD can permanently damage electrostatic discharge-sensitive
components in your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance. Prevent ESD
damage by following ESD guidelines every time you open the case.
•
To avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and moving
parts, turn off your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance and unplug the
power cord and network cables before opening the case.
Before opening the case, follow these guidelines:
•
Turn off your FS-1600 Series NAS appliance.
•
Wear a grounding wrist strap (available at most electronics stores)
and attach it to a bare metal part of your computer.
•
Touch a bare metal surface on the back of the computer.
•
Unplug the power cord and the network cables.
Before working with computer components, follow these guidelines:
•
Avoid static-causing surfaces such as carpeted floors, plastic, and
packing foam.
•
Remove components from their antistatic bags only when you are
ready to use them. Do not lay components on the outside of
antistatic bags because only the inside of the bags provide
electrostatic protection.
4.2. Expanding
Connectivity
Ports allow you connect peripheral devices to your FS-1600 Series NAS
appliance. For instructions on how to connect different external devices to
the appliance, see your peripheral device user’s guide for instructions.
