10: System Hardware and Specifications
Caution:
To maintain proper airflow to cool system components, make sure you install a new fan with the airflow arrow pointing into the chassis.
The power supply contains its own cooling fan. The power supply fan is not field replaceable. If the power supply fan requires replacement, you must replace the power
supply. See Chapter 9, “Servicing the System” for details on replacing the power supply.
Hardware Monitoring and Power Management
The system features advanced hardware monitoring and power management capabilities. These features help save energy, prolong system life, and provide for functionality such as remote system wakeup.
When used with Hardware Monitor software, these features enable you to keep track of such things as system voltages, component and chassis temperatures, and fan presence and operation. For more information on the items that can be monitored on your system, see the System Board Guide and Hardware Monitor Help.
System Configuration Summary
See the System Board Guide for detailed information on the system board and its components.
