1-4 1U Twin: System Notes
As a 1U Twin confi guration, the 6015TC-LFT is a unique server system. With two
system boards incorporated into a single chassis, there are several points you
should keep in mind.
System Power
A single power supply is used to provide the power for both serverboards. Each
serverboard however, can be shut down independently of the other with the power
button on its own control panel.
Although they share a common power supply, the I
2
C signals used for power supply
monitoring are received by the primary serverboard only. (When viewed from the
front of the chassis, the serverboard on the left is referred to as the primary board
and the serverboard on the right as the secondary.)
SATA Backplane/Drives
As a system, the 6015TC-LFT supports the use of four SATA drives. The SATA
backplane works as a single backplane divided into two sections. This means that
while a single power connector is used and functions such as overheating apply to
both sections together, each pair of SATA drives is logically connected to its own
serverboard. Consequently, RAID setup is limited to a two-drive scheme (RAID
cannot be spread across all four drives).
