Installing and Removing Hard Drives

The F414IS chassis contains individual motherboards in separate 1U nodes. Each
motherboard node controls the hard drives contained within that node. Note that if
a node is pulled out of the chassis, the hard drives associated with that node will
power down as well. Refer to the charts below and on the following pages for your
specifi c chassis confi guration. These instructions apply to fi xed 3.5" hard drives.
Only enterprise level hard drives are recommended for use in Supermicro chassis.
