How we prepare every server
Configuration check
We verify CPU, memory, drives and cards against your order and the official spec.
BIOS & firmware
Firmware is updated and BIOS settings (boot order, virtualization, SR-IOV) are applied.
Stress test
CPU, memory and storage are exercised to confirm stability under load.
Storage & RAID
RAID arrays are built and every drive is confirmed healthy with no errors.
Test & record
The unit is tested, serial and labels verified, and photographed for your records.
Export packing
Secure packaging protects the server during international air or sea freight.
