What distinguishes Self-Service CRUs from other CRU types?

Self-Service CRUs, or Customer Replaceable Units, are specifically designed for customers to easily replace certain components on their own, without the need for professional installation or assistance. This accessibility is a key feature that sets them apart from other CRU types, which may require specialized knowledge or tools for installation.

Options that mention professional installation or that are not covered under warranty do not apply to Self-Service CRUs because these units are intended for customer use and typically come with warranty coverage. Additionally, while it's possible that other CRUs are available solely through authorized dealers, Self-Service CRUs are often marketed directly to consumers to facilitate straightforward replacements, further emphasizing their intended ease of use compared to other types.
