Safety Characteristics

The ServeRAID M5014 and ServeRAID M5015 SAS/SATA controllers
meet or exceed the requirements of UL flammability rating 94 V0. Each
bare board is also marked with the supplier name or trademark, type,
and UL flammability rating. The board is installed in a PCI Express bus
slot, so all voltages are lower than the SELV 42.4 V limit.
