cant service and upgrade features.
The Dell PowerEdge 4350 systems include the following service features to make
troubleshooting easy and effective:
•
The Dell Diagnostics program that checks for hardware problems (if the system
can boot)
•
Embedded server management hardware that monitors temperatures and volt
ages throughout the system and notifies you if the system overheats or if a
system cooling fan malfunctions
The Dell PowerEdge 4350 system chassis simplifies removing and replacing com
puter components. The two panel doors on top of the chassis allow easy access to

eliminate the extensive cabling and drive configuration usually required for a SCSI
subsystem. The drive rails attached to the CD-ROM drive allow you to remove the
device without removing a single screw.

the following items:
An additional microprocessor

A variety of expansion-card options (including redundant arravs of independent
disks [RAID] controller host adapter cards)
