Supported SATA SSDs must not exceed the following power and thermal limits:
One or two SATA SSDs supporting up to 4 W per device with a case temperature rating of 70 °C
One or two SATA SSDs supporting up to 1.5 W per device with a case temperature rating of 60 °C
Note
: The maximum supported SSD power and thermal limits documented above were derived based on
thermal testing using a maximum system configuration with fan redundancy support operating at ambient
input air temp of 35 °C. The test system was based on the system models utilizing a maximum number of
front and rear drive storage devices – 12 x 3.5” or 24 x 2.5” in the front and 2 x 2.5” in the back.
Because of thermal limits in this area of the chassis, the rear hot swap drive bay option cannot support hard
disk drives in any system configuration.
By lowering the maximum supported ambient air temperature to 27 °C, and limiting the system configuration
to support 8 or 16 devices up front and no storage devices configured on the air duct, supported SATA SSDs
must not exceed the following power and thermal limits:
One or two SATA SSDs supporting up to 6.4 W per device with a case temperature rating of 70 °C
One or two SATA SSDs supporting up to 3.6 W per device with a case temperature rating of 60 °C
The backplane includes several connectors and a jumper block, as defined in the following illustrations.
