For the purposes of the regulation, in the case of servers declared as being part of a server product family, Annex IV.1 to the Regulation foresees that the Member State authorities can test the low-end performance configuration or the high-end performance configuration. As per definitions 21 and 22 of Annex I, these configurations always must contain (only) two data storage devices. Manufacturers will then sell a full range of (server) configurations within a server product family which may have more or fewer components than the two ‘designated’ configurations, i.e. the low-end performance configuration and the high-end performance configuration.
