2.6 Storage Drives

The blade has two 2.5" hot-swap storage drive bays. The drives are mounted in tool-less
drive carriers that simplify their removal from the chassis. These carriers also help promote
proper airflow. Carriers without drives must remain in the chassis for proper airflow.
For VROC configurations, refer to the VROC appendix in this manual.
Note: Enterprise level storage drives are recommended for use in Supermicro systems. For
information on recommended drives, visit the Supermicro

Drive Carrier Indicators

Each drive carrier has two LED indicators: an activity indicator and a status indicator. For
RAID configurations using a controller, the meaning of the status indicator is described in
the table below. For OS RAID or non-RAID configurations, some LED indications are not
supported, such as hot spare.
