Service and diagnostic general checklist

[Andy]

I have compiled a computer service and diagnostic checklist that I use, feel free to use my template down below:

• (If primary drive is added) former primary drive cleaned and formatted first
• (If secondary drive is added) secondary drive cleaned and formatted first
• Dual drive upgraded models have both drives installed
• SATA configuration set to AHCI or appropriate for drive setup
• Primary SSD/HDD is imaged with correct OS for model
• RAM and SSD/HDD is installed and secured correctly
• Correct SSD/HDD and RAM types confirmed
• Optical drive tray (if present) ejects and reloads
• Wi-Fi adapter is working (if applicable)
• Operating system prepared for first use setup
• One complete shutdown and restart performed

For Non-OEM imaged upgrades, here are the additional checklist:

• Official graphics and audio drivers and all other drivers installed

Model: __________ / Tested by: __________ / Date: ___/___/_____.

This checklist is very useful for computer upgrades.

Also, feel free to comment down below if you think I missed anything, I'll add on the list here.
