Introducción
The HQ Compaq 8200 Elite is a workstation-class desktop PC meant for office spaces. It has an internal design philosophy based around making it easy for technicians to quickly swap drives and expansion cards in and out, and most other components are easily swapped as well provided one has a Torx driver handy.
The device used in this teardown is a decommissioned design PC which has been in deployment for around 3 years. It may have minor differences from the stock configuration, but is fundamentally the same.
