Import Tips
• Verify disk diameter exceeds 21 cm and confirm it's solely for physical incorporation into ADP machines, not retail packaging
• Provide detailed technical specs including interface (e.g
• SAS/SATA) and capacity in import documentation to avoid misclassification
• Ensure FCC compliance and RoHS certification; common pitfall is failing to declare as OEM unit vs consumer product
