3.1 Rail Kit Assembly
Make sure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt can get into com-
puter components and cause a malfunction. Many of the screws on the server are different
sizes; use containers to keep screws and small components separated.
Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally damaging internal
components. Most of the following procedures require only a few simple tools, including
the following:
A Philips screwdriver
A flat-tipped screwdriver
A set of jeweler’s screwdrivers
A grounding strap
An anti-static pad
Humid environments tend to have less static electricity than dry environments. A ground-
ing strap is warranted whenever danger of static electricity exists.
Assembling the rail kit involves the following procedures:
