what this record identifies

Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro is a platform family. The evaluator only uses the defined profiles below. They make decision-relevant selections explicit while refusing to invent a manufacturer part number, serial number, firmware revision, or fitted option.

Identity boundary: a seller’s unit can differ even when its case badge matches. Confirm the actual CPU, memory modules, storage devices, network adapter, and expansion hardware before relying on a result.

configuration resolver and coverage gaps

The maintained profiles deliberately expose every evaluator-relevant field that is present in the graph and label missing physical facts instead of treating a model-family name as an exact machine.

  1. Read the exact CPU model in firmware or the operating system.
  2. Confirm each installed memory module and occupied slot.
  3. Identify the system drive, every data drive, and the storage interface used.
  4. Record the wired NIC, fitted expansion hardware, and power-adapter identity.
  5. Record the firmware revision; if any field cannot be matched, keep it unknown.

“Maintained processor selections” describes this evaluator subset, not every processor the manufacturer may have sold. A configuration outside these profiles needs a new reviewed record before it can receive a positive result.

official versus observed limits

Official support and observed behavior are intentionally separate. An official ceiling is not a lab result, and one working specimen does not prove every seller listing or firmware revision.

  • firmware version
  • NIC controller revision

workloads tested on this exact platform

No workload has been reproduced on an identified physical specimen of this platform. Every current workload result remains a documented prerequisite or modeled planning answer, never a performance claim.

upgrade fit and conflict checks

modeled not lab verified

Matched 32 GB DDR4 SO-DIMM kit (2 × 16 GB)

starting profile: i5-8500T / 16 GB / 512 GB NVMe (1 of 1 modeled profile)

  • Replace both existing modules.
  • Confirm module voltage, rank, and firmware compatibility before purchase.

modeled not lab verified

1 TB 2.5-inch SATA SSD

starting profile: i5-8500T / 16 GB / 512 GB NVMe (1 of 1 modeled profile)

  • A compatible 2.5-inch drive assembly and cable must be present.
  • Physical fit and thermal behavior remain unverified.

claim boundary

  • No physical specimen has been matched to these records.
  • No firmware, thermal, power, acoustic, or sustained-load result is attached.
  • No retail memory or storage part has passed physical-fit testing.
  • A documented maximum is not an observed working maximum.

Scoped Grade A run count: 0. A positive specification match can establish a prerequisite. It cannot establish measured workload performance.

evidence boundary

Grade A count: 0. A Grade B source can establish a documented specification or requirement. Grade D records are modeling inputs. Neither is proof of measured throughput, thermals, power, reliability, or physical fit.

3 attached evidence records

a grade describes how well attested a statement is, not how good the hardware is. grade a is a lab run we reproduced with a published method. grade d is a model, a reasoned inference, or a single unverified report.

record and source history

This projection is generated from homelab graph version 0.1.0. The generated lifecycle index exposes only history events that are explicitly present in the structured record. It does not invent an earlier revision when the graph contains only its creation baseline.

  1. — current preview record reviewed against the attached evidence set.
  2. — next required review under the monthly pilot-record review interval.
  3. — created: Initial modeled hardware record created for the private feasibility graph.
