Moving the computer
Before moving your computer, even across the room, make
sure all disk activity has ended (the drive-in-use lights stop
glowing) and all external peripheral cables are disconnected.
CAUTION: Never pick up the computer by its display panel or by
the back (where the ports are located).
Although your notebook computer is built to withstand
reasonable shock and vibration, transport it in a carrying case
for long trips. You can purchase a carrying case from your
Toshiba dealer or through Toshiba’s Web site at
.
Using a computer lock
You may want to secure your computer to a heavy object such
as your desk. The easiest way to do this is to purchase an
optional Port Noteworthy
®
computer lock cable.

Loop the cable through or around some part of a heavy
object.
