        How to read the results

        Manufacturer documented

        A cited document supports the stated rule. Conditions still apply to your configuration.

        Catalog reference

        A listed platform or chassis option helps you plan. It does not establish what is installed in your system.

        Needs confirmation

        Missing or conflicting details are carried into your review request. They are never counted as a compatibility pass.

        Need a configuration checked?

        Send your model, installed components and intended upgrade. We can help identify the parts and restrictions that matter.
