[QUOTE="thomas998, post: 1007983, member: 111388"] I wouldn't worry about it. I've stripped down and rebuilt computers for years and slowly gotten to the point that I stopped bothering with anti-static bag for parts, and stopped worrying about grounding myself when I worked on them... And I have never caused any damage to the computer or parts from not being cautious. Frankly I think most parts are much less sensitive to static than they once were. If it were me I would probably just stick the hard drive into my jacket pocket and go on my merry way. Now if your hard drive has crashed, there is a real chance you wont get anything off the thing. So don't get the expectations up to high. [/QUOTE]
