Before You Begin

Thank you for your interest in Maxtors QuickView 400/500GB Serial ATA hard disk drives. This

manual provides technical information for OEM engineers and systems integrators regarding the

installation and use of Maxtor Serial ATA hard drives. Please do not remove or cover up Maxtor

factory-installed drive labels. They contain information required should the drive ever need

repair. Drive repair should be performed only at an authorized repair center. For repair informa-

tion, contact the Maxtor Product Support Center at 1-800-2MAXTOR.

CAUTION: Maxtor hard drives are precision products. Failure to follow these precautions and

guidelines outlined here may lead to product failure, damage and invalidation of all

warranties.

1BEFORE unpacking or handling a drive, take all proper electrostatic discharge (ESD)

precautions, including personnel and equipment grounding. Stand-alone drives are

sensitive to ESD damage.

2BEFORE removing drives from their packing material, allow them to reach room

temperature.

3 During handling, NEVER drop, jar, or bump a drive.

4 Once a drive is removed from the Maxtor shipping container, IMMEDIATELY secure

the drive through its mounting holes within a chassis. Otherwise, store the drive on a

padded, grounded, antistatic surface. NEVER stack hard drives. This may cause dam-

age to the drive.
