Slimline Optical Drive Bay

The system provides a slimline drive bay designed to support a single slimline SATA optical

drive. For a list of supported drives, refer to the Server Configurator Tool available at:

http://serverconfigurator.intel.com/default.aspx

The optical drive is mounted to a tool-less assembly latch that allows for easy installation and

attachment to the system. Once it is inserted into the system, the assembly locks into place. It

is not hot-swappable. For removal, you must power down the system, remove the system's top

cover, and disengage the locking latch. For additional details, see the Intel

SR2612UR Service Guide.

The SATA Optical drive plugs directly into the backplane using industry standard 13-pin SATA

connector. This SATA channel is routed from the USB to the SATA converter located on the

backplane. The optical drive is seen as a USB device in the system.

6.2

The system supports up to 12 hot-swap 3.5-inch SAS or SATA hard disk drives. Hard drives are

mounted to hot-swap drive trays for easy insertion to or extraction from the drive bay. Two

additional fixed mount 2.5-inch drives are supported with an internal drive cage.

6.2.1

Each hard drive must be mounted to a hot-swap drive carrier, making insertion and extraction of

the drive from the system very simple. Each drive carrier has its own dual-purpose latching

mechanism, which is used to both insert/extract drives from the system and lock the carrier in

place. Each drive tray supports a light pipe that provides a drive status indicator. The light pipe

is located on the backplane, which you can view from the front of the system.
