Property and data protection
The floorstand model is protected against unauthorized opening by a lock. Apart
from this, the server is also fitted with an intrusion detection switch which
enables the ServerView program to detect and log any removal of the left cover
or housing cover and the cover for the HDD modules.
To prevent it being removed from its location, the floorstand model can be
secured to a fixed object with a steel cable running through a clip on the back.
The rack model is protected against unauthorized access by a lockable rack
door.
To protect your system and data internally against unauthorized access, you
can use the BIOS Setup security functions.
