2U 8x2.5” Drive Bay Module Options
2U system configurations that include support for 2.5” front mount storage devices can support up to three 8x2.5” drive bay modules. Intel makes
available different types of 8x2.5” drive bay modules and can support from one to three of the same module or a mix of different modules.

Drive numbering in the illustrations above is for general reference only. Actual drive numbering is dependent on SAS/SATA/NVMe controller
configuration and how they are cabled to the backplane. Each drive bay will include a single backplane. Each backplane will include a multi-port data
connector for each set of four drives. Ex) for an 8 drive configuration, the backplane will include 2 four port data connectors. In the illustration above,
drives showing a common Drive ID label color share a common data connector on the backside of the given backplane.

8 drive bay module
(16x2.5” – 2 drive bays) system configurations utilize the same front I/O module
bay assembly containing the System Control Panel and Front I/O Panel (shown in Figure 14). When upgrading a R2208WF based system to a 16 drive
based system, all that is needed is the removal of the Bay #2 face plate to insert the new drive bay and adding the required data cables. No other
chassis changes or additions are required.
