Cosmetic Condition Grading
Excellent Grade (A) servers show minimal signs of previous rack installation with only very light scuffing on the chassis from standard mounting. The front bezel and external surfaces remain in near-pristine condition with barely noticeable wear. Good Grade (B) servers are fully functional with light scratches on the external chassis, minor paint chips, or small dings from previous data centre use. All cosmetic variations are purely aesthetic and do not affect the server's performance, reliability, or functionality in any way.
