Tips for your health and safety

Using a computer extensively may affect different parts of your body. Here are tips you should follow while working on a computer to minimize strain on your body.

Keep proper posture

The basic body position for using a computer is sitting straight with your hands on the keyboard parallel with the floor, and your eyes directed slightly downward toward the monitor. With the proper posture described above, no unnecessary strain is applied on any part of your body, in other words when your muscles are most relaxed.

Working on the computer with bad posture such as hunching over or being too close to the monitor could cause fatigue or deteriorated eyesight.

Adjust the angle of your display

Most display units are designed for adjustment of the horizontal and vertical angles. This adjustment is important to prevent the screen from reflecting bright lights and to make the display contents easy to see. Working without adjusting the display to a comfortable angle makes it difficult for you to maintain a proper posture and you will get tired easily. Adjust the viewing angle before use.

Adjust the brightness and contrast of the display

Display screens have functions to control brightness and contrast. The most suitable brightness/contrast depends on age, individuals, and environment, so adjust it to suit your preferences. A too bright or too dark display is bad for your eyes.

Adjust the angle of keyboard

Some keyboards are ergonomically designed, which allow the angle to be adjusted. Adjusting the angle of the keyboard is effective to reduce tension on your shoulders, arms, and fingers.

Clean your equipment

Keeping your equipment clean is important not only for the appearance but also for functional and safety reasons. A dusty monitor makes it difficult to see the display contents, so clean it regularly.

Take rest breaks

When you feel tired, take a break. Light exercise is also recommended.

Use of Internal Hard Disk Drives in the RAID System

This section describes how to use the hard disk drives installed i n the HDD cage at the front of the serv er in the RAID system.

Important

Note

Tips

To build a RAID system, change the jumper switch on motherboard and backplane, as shown below.

If you use hard disk drives in the RAID system or change the RAID level, initialize the hard disk drives. If the hard disk drive used in the RAID system contains valuable data, be sure to back up the hard disk drive before installing the RAID controller and configuring the RAID system.

In the RAID system, use hard disk drives that have the same specifications (capacity, rotational speed, and standard) for each disk array.

Logical drives can be created even with only one physical device.

 Use SAS/SATA hard disk drives or SSDs that have the same capacity and rotational speed.  RAID 10 using a hard disk drive of 2 TB or more cannot be supported if an on-board RAID controller is

used.

 When installing an OS in your RAID system, you can easily complete the setup process, including RAID

configuration and OS installation, by using EXPRESSBUILDER.

 If you are installing th e OS manually, use the RAID system configuration utility. The utility can be run

during POST which starts immediately after the server is turned on. For details, see Chapter 2 (4. RAID System Configuration) in "Maintenance Guide" or the manual supplied with the optional RAID controller.

Important

 Do not change the RAID system mode to hibernate.  A mix of SAS and SATA drives cannot be used within the RAID system.
