Import Tips

• Verify the drive's form factor (e.g

• 2.5-inch) and interface compatibility to confirm it's for physical incorporation into ADP systems, not external use

• Include detailed technical specs and ADP integration certifications in documentation to avoid reclassification as consumer peripherals

• Ensure RoHS compliance and provide FCC markings to prevent delays at customs for electronic components
