Nodes and Associated Hard Drives
The CSE-F418IF4 chassis contains up to eight individual motherboards in separate 1U nodes.
Each node has either two 2.5" drives, with an additional optional two 2.5" drives for the P2
model. Zero nodes have eight drives. Note that if a node is pulled out of the chassis, the hard
drives associated with that node will power down as well. Refer to the charts below and on
the following pages for your specific chassis configuration
