Accessing the Drive Bays

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 instructions. You
must use standard 1" high, SATA drives in the system.
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/>.
The SC217HQ+ chassis contains four individual serverboards in separate node
drawers. Each serverboard node controls a set of six hard drives. Note that if a
serverboard node drawer is pulled out of the chassis, the hard drives associated
with that node will power down as well.
