Here are 5 rules to remember to give the server increased life.

1. Give the server a closed and locked room

2. Make sure you can ventilate and cool down the temperature

3. Avoid location where it is exposed to water damage (under water pipes, A/C or in a basement)

4. Consider a closet or other form of storage and never directly on the floor

5. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or in a burglar-prone room
