Chapter 5: Chassis Setup and Maintenance
5-4 Storage Drives
The SC217BHQ chassis supports twenty-four 2.5" drives. They can be removed
without powering down the system if your operating system supports RAID.
The chassis contains four separate computing node drawers, each with its own
motherboard. Each node controls a set of six hard drives. If a node drawer is pulled
out of the chassis, the hard drives associated with that node will power down.
Note: Enterprise level hard disk drives are recommended for use in Supermicro
servers. For information on recommended drives, visit the Supermicro website.

Installing and Removing Drives
Hard drives are mounted in a drive carrier to simplify their installation and removal
from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper airflow for the drive bays
Caution: Except for short periods of time while swapping hard drives, do not operate
the server without hard drives in the hard drive bays.
