6-4 Drive Bay Installation/Removal
Accessing the Drive Bays
SAS/SATA Drives: You do not need to access the inside of the chassis or remove
power to replace or swap SAS/SATA drives. Proceed to the next step for instruc-
tions.
You must use standard 1" high, SAS drives in the system.
Note:
Special add-on cards installed in the drive carriers provide support for SATA
drives. Each carrier must have one AOC-LSISS9252 card installed to support a
SATA drive.
Note:
Refer to the following ftp site for setup guidelines: <ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/
driver/SAS/LSI/LSI_SAS_EmbMRAID_SWUG.pdf> and Supermicro's web site for
additional inmformation < http://www.supermicro.com/support/manuals/>.
Hard Drive Midplane
The hard drives plug into a midplane that provides power, drive ID and bus termi-
nation. A RAID controller can be used with the midplane to provide data security.
The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-swap
capability of the hard drives. The midplane is already precon
fi
gured, so no jumper
or switch con
fi
gurations are required.
SAS 2.0 Controller
The SAS 2.0 controller (LSI 2008) is located on a mezzanine card (AOM-SAS2-L8)
that plugs into the "SAS 2 Controller Card" slot (see serverboard layout diagram
for location).
SAS/SATA Drive Installation
These drives are mounted in drive carriers to simplify their installation and removal
from the chassis. The carriers also help promote proper air
fl
ow for the drives. For
this reason, even empty carriers without hard drives installed must remain in the
chassis.
Removing a HDD Carrier from the Chassis (Figure 6-4)
1. Press the release button on the drive tray. This extends the drive tray handle.
2. Use the handle to pull the drive out of the chassis.
