About This Manual
This manual is written for professional system integrators and PC technicians. It
provides information for the installation and use of the SCF424 2U chassis. Instal-
lation and maintenance should be performed by experienced technicians only.
The FatTwin™ is the latest addition to Supermicro's evolving line of Twin Architecture
SuperServer® solutions. The 4U FatTwin greatly expands computer and storage
capacities beyond Supermicro's existing 2U Twin2™ and 1U Twin™ SuperServer®
systems to achieve increased performance with lower power consumption. By virtue
of its shared components the FatTwin improves cost-effectiveness and reliability,
while its modular architecture makes it flexible to configure and easy to maintain.
The FatTwin is available in a variety of configurations, with options for hot-swappable
hard drives, fixed hard drives, redundant power supplies, front or rear I/O, PCI and
networking options and more. Its high-efficiency, highly effective shared cooling
architecture allows the FatTwin to operate in high-temperature, free-air cooled
environments up to 47°C, providing considerable cost savings and improved TCO.
Versatile configurations allow the FatTwin to be optimized for many different environ -
ments including Data Center, Cloud Computing, and HPC; Engineering, Research,
and GPU projects; File and Storage Server deployments; and General Server and
Enterprise Server applications.
