1

Maximum altitude is 2,000 m (800 mbar) (at 25 °C ambient temperature)

2

Upon fan failure, the servers in the system might have reduced performance.

3

M.2 drive might exceed its spec by 2°C to 3°C and have slight throttling.

4

Near 55°C inlet ambient temperature, when the CPU is stressed at 100%, the HPE m510 -16c server might have reduced performance.

5

The PCI card must have inlet spec rated at 65°C or higher, and an air speed of 375 ft/min.
