A system administrator reviewing environmental monitoring logs for a primary server room notes that the relative humidity (RH) has dropped to 18%. Which of the following potential hazards should the administrator address IMMEDIATELY to prevent equipment damage?
- Increased buildup and unexpected release of electrostatic discharge (ESD)Cevap
- BRapid moisture condensation forming on internal motherboard circuitry
- CCPU thermal throttling caused by a severe reduction in coolant air density
- DAccelerated chemical corrosion rates on exposed copper expansion bus contacts
Cevap
Increased buildup and unexpected release of electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Maintaining appropriate relative humidity (typically between 40% and 60%) in server rooms is critical. When humidity drops below 40%, the dry air prevents static charges from safely bleeding off into the atmosphere, causing high static voltage accumulation on technicians and chassis surfaces, which drastically increases ESD risks.
