Chapter 3: Maintaining Your Server

To extend the life of your server:

■

Be careful not to bump or drop your server.

■

When transporting your server, we recommend that you put it in the original 
packaging materials.

■

Keep your server and magnetic media away from equipment that generates 
magnetic fields.

■

Avoid subjecting your server to extreme temperatures. Do not expose your server 
to heating ducts or other heat-generating objects. Damage caused by extreme 
temperatures is not covered by your warranty. As a general rule, your server is safest 
at temperatures that are comfortable for you.

■

Keep all liquids away from your server. When spilled onto server components, 
almost any liquid can result in expensive repairs that are not covered under your 
warranty.

■

Avoid dusty or dirty work environments. Dust and dirt can clog the internal 
mechanisms and can cause the server to overheat.

Keeping your server clean and the vents free from dust helps keep your server performing 
at its best. Your server cleaning kit could include:

■

A soft, lint-free cloth

■

Glass cleaner

■

An aerosol can of air with a narrow, straw-like extension

■

Isopropyl alcohol

■

Cotton swabs

■

A tape drive cleaning cartridge (if a tape drive is installed)

■

A CD or DVD drive cleaning kit
