Abstract
A protective cap for an electrical connector of a hard disc drive. The connector is assembled to a hard disk drive that contains one or more electrical circuits. The protective cap can be placed onto the top of the electrical connector to prevent an electrostatic discharged onto the connector. The cap can therefore protect the electrical circuits from damage due to an electrostatic discharge onto the connector.
