Getting Started
The Base R2 computer system does not include a solid state drive or operating system. These can be added
at the time of purchase and will be installed by Sealevel’s experienced technicians. If you purchase the
computer with a solid state drive, the OS and all necessary software drivers will be preinstalled.
If you wish to install the operating system yourself, you will need to install the applicable drivers. Some
drivers apply to the hardware on the COM Express module; some are for devices present on the carrier
board. The following table lists the devices that will require drivers.
