Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Connect the included power adapter to the workstation and a power outlet.
- Attach your monitor(s) using the provided DisplayPort or HDMI ports.
- Connect the included wired keyboard and mouse to the available USB ports.
- Connect to your network via the Ethernet port or a compatible USB Wi-Fi adapter (sold separately).
- Press the power button to boot into Windows 11 Pro. Follow the on-screen prompts for initial setup.
Compatibility:
The ThinkStation P3 Tiny Gen 2 runs Windows 11 Pro (64-bit). Ensure that any software you intend to use is compatible with this operating system. The workstation supports up to 128 GB of DDR5-SDRAM across its two SO-DIMM slots, offering some upgrade potential.
Care:
- Keep the workstation in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating, especially given its compact size.
- Avoid placing it in dusty environments. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth.
- For internal cleaning, ensure the unit is powered off and unplugged. Use compressed air to gently blow dust out of vents and internal components, taking care not to damage any parts. Consult the user manual before attempting any internal access.
