Take care disassembly or reassembly.
5.Repair being far away because it can receive effect by TV or magnet.
6.Put in safe place lest shock of data recorded to HDD should be passed after separation in substance
because data is weak in shock.
7.Since the data on the HDD is weak to mechanical shock, place the HDD in a safe location that is free from
mechanical shock once it is removed from the main unit.
8.In order to safe keep the data on the HDD, back up the data before the repair or make sure not to place
the HDD near any electrical appliance that generates a strong magnetic field.
Be backed up before repair to keep data recorded to HDD.
