Bigger font for ST# number

170 points posted to Servers and Storage by handrianto May 16

Service tag font size located in front of the server is too small to read. this make hard for user to locate the service tag and also to read. the most easier part for user to look at ST# is
located at the back for the server & storage,and
if the user aware of Dell OMSA, read it in Dell OMSA.
It would be nicer if the Service tag printed in a bigger font, so make the user easy to locate th Service tag, especially for the new Dell Servr user.

May 16		 I know dell does a poor job on service tags for desktop and laptops, in addition to larger font the color scheme needs improvements.

Dell has embeded the service tag in the bios, it is easier to read, but not a great substitute for a well placed easy to read service tag

May 16		 It is definitely being discussed, and I think it is at least partially implemented, the last time I saw an Inspiron 530 desktop not only was the service tag sticker on the top front, it was in a larger font than usual. I can't confirm it on all systems yet, but there are a lot of us pushing for it.

May 16		 Hmm..that's a good idea, an eye catching service tag instead of only 7 digits alphanumeric character. Well my idea actually is intend specifically to Dell ESG product. Because most new dell user cannot easily locate the service tag. They should go back around the units to look for the ST. I wish there is bigger font and eyecatching (as undead99 idea) ST# in front of the Server & storage.

May 17		 yes please implement this, the service tag is so microscopic and i tell you most of the us wont easily recognize it, much more for the older folks, please make the service tag fonts bigger and more visible.
