WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely

damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before

opening your computer case or touching your PCI Express card. StarTech.com

recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any computer

component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static

electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the

computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI Express

card by its edges and not the gold connectors.
