Intel® Server System R1000WF Product Family Technical Product Specification
Note: Due to degraded performance and reliability concerns, the use of the 3.5" drive blank as a 2.5" drive
bracket is intended to support SSD type storage devices only. Installing a 2.5" hard disk drive into the 3.5"
drive blank cannot be supported.
Each drive carrier includes separate LED indicators for drive activity and drive status. Light pipes integrated
into the drive carrier assembly direct light emitted from LEDs mounted next to each drive connector on the
backplane to the drive carrier faceplate, making them visible from the front of the system.
