Checking the Cart

How to check the cart before it goes to the warehouse and recycling area, and how to teach evaluators to put away keeper systems.

Quick Guide

• Cart checking:
  • Covers
  • Labels
  • Cards
  • Warning signs that something's not right
• Teaching warehouse/recycling skills:
  • Does someone in the eval area already know how to file systems? Have them teach the newbies. If not, then go with and explain.
  • Point out recycling pile
  • Point out maps and HOWTOs posted at the ends of the rows of shelving, as well as the labels on the shelves.
  • Briefly describe the filing system

Detailed Instructions

Checking the Cart

When checking the cart full of systems in eval before it rolls into the oblivion of the recycling area/limbo of the warehouse, keep these points in mind. If something's done incorrectly, ask the evaluators to make any necessary corrections.

• Covers should be affixed with all screws for keeper systems and at least one screw for recycler systems.
• Each label should be correctly and completely filled out.
• All the appropriate cards should be pulled out of the system (there are usually some cards or card-looking things that are allowable to keep in the systems. Check the mining documentation for eval I or eval II for these).
• Warning signs to look out for:
  • If the system is newer, but pretty heavy, it may not have been mined.
  • Take a look into the holes created by the empty card slots. Is there RAM or something else you shouldn't be seeing in there? If so, hand it back to the evaluators.
  • If the cart's stacked too high, take a few systems off.
