There are three revisions of the 1950. If it is a II or III, it should have an indicator in the upper-left corner of the chassis. Sometimes that might be missing. It should say in the order details for the server's Service Tag. If it has an OS with OMSA installed (or you boot to an OMSA Live disc), it will show under System, Main System Chassis, Properties. Another way to tell is by the processor. If it has a 5300-series Xeon it is II or III, and if it has a 5400-series Xeon it is a III.
