Hard Drive Carrier
5.2
There are two types of HDD carriers for two chassis SKUs respectively:
Hot-swap drive carriers make insertion and extraction of the drive from the system very simple.
Each type of drive carrier has its own latching mechanism, which is used to both insert and
extract drives from the chassis and lock the carrier in place. Each type of drive carrier supports
two light pipes to direct light from the drive status LEDs on the backplane to the carrier's face
allowing it to be viewable from the front of the system.

Both the Intel
Server Chassis H2312xx and H2216xx can support hot-swap SATA/SAS hard
drives. Hard drives interface with the passive backplane through a blind mate connection when
drives are installed into a hard drive bay using hot-swap drive carriers.
