Attention: The drive startup sequence in the computer you are servicing may have been changed. Be extremely careful during write operations such as copying, saving, or formatting. If you select an incorrect drive, data or programs can be overwritten. If the computer is shipped with both an mSATA solid-state drive and a hard disk drive, the mSATA solid-state drive is used for the "cache" function and to support the Intel® Rapid Start Technology. It is recommended that users do not replace the mSATA solid-state drive by themselves. Otherwise, the "cache" function will not work and the Intel Rapid Start Technology cannot be used any more. Attention: Ensure that you partition the mSATA solid-state drive after installing it on the computer you are servicing. Otherwise, the mSATA solid-state drive will not function correctly. For instructions on how to partition an mSATA solid-state drive, go tohttp://www.lenovo.com/support/msata-fru. Important notice for replacing a system board Some components mounted on a system board are very sensitive. Improper handling of a system board can cause damage to those components, and may cause a system malfunction. Attention: When handling a system board: • Do not drop a system board or apply any excessive force to it. • Avoid rough handling of any kind. • Avoid bending a system board and hard pushing to prevent cracking at each BGA (Ball Grid Array) chipset. How to use error message Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. Whatever causes the first error code may also cause false error codes. If no error code is displayed, see whether the error symptom is listed in the Symptom-to-FRU Index for the computer you are servicing. Strategy for replacing FRUs for CTO, special bid model, and standard models This topic provides information about the model types and FRU identification. Product definition This topic introduces different model types and how to identify each type. Dynamic Configure To Order (CTO) This model provides the ability for a customer to configure a Lenovo solution from a web site, and have this configuration sent to fulfillment, where it is built and shipped directly to the customer. The machine label and eSupport will load these products as the 4-character MT, 4-character model and 2-character country code. The model is "CTO1" and the default country code is "WW" (example: 20AACTO1WW). Special bid model This model is a unique configuration that has been negotiated between Lenovo and the customer. A unique MTM consists of a 4-character MT, a 4-character model, and a numeric 2-character country code is provided to the customer to place orders (example: 20AA000955). The country code assigned is numeric and does not designate a specific country or region. The custom model factsheet for the MTM indicates which country the special bid MTM is set up for. Special bid offering is not generally announced. Standard model Standard models (fixed configuration) are announced and offered to all customers. The MTM portion of the machine label consists of a 4-character MT, a 4-character model, and an alphabetic 2-character country 20 Hardware Maintenance Manual
