Spout assembly

An improved method of shipping and installing a new hard drive in a computer comprising the steps of packaging a new hard drive in an improved static dissipation bag having a conductive coating on its exterior surface; boxing the packaged new hard drive in a shock-absorbing medium within a transportation box, connecting the new hard drive to the computer, transferring the data from the computer to the new hard drive, disconnecting the new hard drive from the computer, grounding the static dissipation bag to the computer and to an operator, removing the new hard drive from the bag and transportation box, and installing it in the computer.

Method for installing a hard drive into a computer and improved components therefor

An improved method of installing a new hard drive in a computer comprising packaging a new hard drive with a connected hard drive connector assembly having a hard drive PCMCIA connector in a static dissipation bag having a conductive coating on its exterior surface; grounding the static dissipation bag by connecting the bag to the computer and to an operator, extending the PCMCIA connector outside the bag, connecting the new hard drive via the PCMCIA connector to the PCMCIA or equivalent port of a computer, transferring the data on the computer to the new hard drive, disconnecting the PCMCIA connector from the computer, removing the new hard drive from the static dissipation bag, disconnecting the hard drive connector assembly from the new hard drive, and installing the new hard drive in the computer.
