Installation
Qualifications - What do I need to know to install this server in a rack? If you are handy with
computers in general and the idea of using a screwdriver to open one up does not have you cringing
then installing the G-RACK 12 server will not be beyond your capabilities. You need to be able to lift
50lbs (you may want help) and know your way around screws, bolts, nuts and power connectors.
Rack - What sort of rack do I need and where do I place the unit in the rack. Any standard 19 inch
rack will support this unit. If the rack is empty place the server in the lowest location as to allow
adding new units after.
