* Crystal Group designs all servers to meet or exceed the specifications listed herein. Due to the sheer number of models and combinations of components (memory, CPU, peripheral cards, hard drives), it is not practical to test every combination of servers offered. Please ask your Crystal Business Development Manager for data on qualification testing for configurations similar to the desired configuration for your application
