Local Quality Control

Built with greater control from assembly to dispatch

By assembling, configuring and testing systems locally in Melbourne, DiGiCOR maintains direct oversight across the build process. This helps our technical team verify component compatibility, optimise system configurations and complete thorough checks before each solution is approved for dispatch.

Why local testing matters

Local assembly gives DiGiCOR hands-on control over how each system is built, tested and prepared. This process helps ensure every solution is aligned with customer requirements before it is shipped.

Melbourne-based build Servers and systems are assembled and configured at DiGiCOR's head office.
ISO 9001 certified Quality management processes support consistency across every build.
In-house validation Testing procedures are completed by DiGiCOR's technical team before dispatch.
Ready for deployment Systems are prepared to support smoother installation and integration.
Our Process

From order confirmation to final testing

DiGiCOR follows a structured process to prepare, assemble and validate systems before they are delivered to customers.

01

Order confirmation & preparation

Once the order and quotation are confirmed, the team reviews the requirements, checks inventory and procures any essential components needed for the build.

02

System assembly & configuration

DiGiCOR's Melbourne-based technicians assemble the system and configure key components such as CPU, RAM, hard drives and RAID settings to support smoother deployment.

03

Testing & validation

After the build is complete, the system undergoes in-house testing in line with DiGiCOR's ISO 9001 quality processes to verify component function and system readiness.

Hardware Verification

Thorough testing before systems leave our facility

DiGiCOR's quality assurance process includes checks across memory, GPU, CPU, disks, RAID configurations, power supplies, system logs, temperatures and final accessories.

RAM

Memory validation

Installed RAM is checked against the supplied amount and BIOS reporting, with memory also assessed during full load testing.

GPU

GPU testing

GPU performance is measured through DiGiCOR's selected testing software to help confirm optimal operation under simulation.

CPU

CPU performance checks

Processors are tested for performance capability, temperature behaviour and supported functionality such as hyper-threading.

SSD

Disk testing

Disks are tested to confirm correct link speeds, error-free logs and successful RAID rebuild activity where applicable.

LOAD

Full memory load testing

Systems are tested under load while temperatures, power supply behaviour, RAM and stability are monitored.

PSU

Power supply testing

Where multiple PSUs are present, DiGiCOR verifies the number of power supplies and tests operation through shutdown and boot checks.

System Readiness

RAID validation, clean-up and final preparation

Before shipment, DiGiCOR completes final checks to confirm each system is correctly configured, cleaned up where required and ready for delivery.

RAID configuration checks

The team verifies raw disk size, rebuild completion, controller operation, backplane function, array performance, data written and RAID controller logs.

Thermal monitoring

Temperatures are monitored during testing. If temperatures are excessive, corrective steps are taken and cooling is re-evaluated.

Fault handling

If errors occur during testing, they are reported and action is taken to rectify issues before the system is approved for dispatch.

Final Checks

Prepared, reviewed and checked before shipment

Final preparation depends on each system configuration and may include BIOS checks, log clearing, storage preparation and accessory verification.

  • BIOS is cleared and reset where required.
  • Logs are checked and cleared before dispatch.
  • Drives are wiped where no operating system is supplied.
  • Arrays are reset or configured according to the sales order.
  • CPU temperatures and 12v rails are checked against operable limits.
  • DiGiCOR testing equipment is removed from the system.
  • Accessory boxes are checked for included cables and required items.
  • Identified issues are reviewed and rectified before shipment.

Our Building and Testing Process

01 Confirming

Upon confirmation of the order and quotation by our dedicated account managers, we initiate the preparation process. This begins with a thorough inventory check and the procurement of any essential components required for the build.

02 Building

With all the necessary components in hand, our skilled technicians at the Melbourne head office optimize the CPU, RAM, hard drives, RAID configuration, and more. This preparation ensures a smooth deployment and seamless integration. Rest assured, every system is expertly built and dispatched from our head office.

03 Testing

After building the solution, in accordance with the Quality ISO 9001 standards, we conduct vigorous testing to verify that the system and its components are functioning optimally and are devoid of defects. All our testing procedures are meticulously carried out in-house at our head office.


Hardware Verification, Testing and Quality Assurance

RAM Test – Check RAM size is correct and matches the supplied amount of RAM as well as BIOS reports. Will be tested within the full load test.

GPU Test – We use our specific choice of GPU testing software to measure if the GPU is performing optimally through a simulation.

CPU Test – We test the performance capabilities of the processor within a simulation in our CPU testing software and observe the Tcase, TDP and if the CPU is capable of hyperthread.

Disk Test – Test disks in in our RAID testing software to ensure disks are linking at correct speed and that no errors are occurring in the logs. Afterwards, we start a rebuild and take note of the time it takes to rebuild. The rebuild should be completed error-free.

Full memory load test – We run this test on our software for a minimum of 1 hour depending on the RAM size. We take note of the temperature, if it exceeds the appropriate Tcase by more than 5% then the cooling of the server will be re-evaluated. We will take into consideration any power supply, RAM or temperature issues while testing.

RAID Setting/Test

Initially, we take note of the raw disk size and check to see if the rebuild has been completed and is error free. We ensure that every connected port is at least tested for connectivity and run the appropriate tool to load the controller, backplane and array. We take note of the amount of data written (total of all arrays) and the temperature. If the temperature is excessive, we take steps to correct and re-evaluate the enclosures cooling.

Lastly, we check the RAID controller logs to ensure all is running correctly.

Power and redundancy PSU tests We make checks on the number of PSU’s in the system, making sure it’s correct. Afterwards, we test all PSU’s by shutting down servers and booting them back up to confirm it’s running properly.

Clean Up

Clean Up is dependent on the configuration of each system. We clear and reset the BIOS if an OS is supplied. Logs are checked and cleared. If there is no OS, we wipe the drives and reset/set arrays as per required of the sales order.
In addition, we check CPU temperatures and 12v rails to make sure they are within operable limits. Making sure all of our Digicor testing equipment is removed and checking the accessory box is complete, including power cables or any other additional cables within the sales order.

If any errors occur during testing: They will be reported and action to rectify will be taken if necessary. We have set procedures to ensure any issues with builds are picked up before the machines arrive in the field. If we experience any faults in products, we look into replacing the specific product from suppliers with a new one.

We have a lot of checks and balances to make sure items will be working properly and is optimised based on customer requirements before shipping it to the end user.
