[LUG] OT: Preventing electrostatic discharge

 

Hi,

I'm looking into upgrading an older machine and connecting it to my new wireless router but I'm wary of starting off because I don't want to fry any new or old components. I know at least a few other members build computers, so I was wondering how you deal with ESD, particularly storing components outside of computer cases: is there any need to put them in things like anti-static bags, and if so where could I get them?

Cheers,
Chris
