Figure 3-8. Installing a Rear Hard Drive Carrier
Note: Backplane naming rule follows.
P0 : 01 : 00 --> indicates 1st expander board, 1st drive, slot1 (out of 60 drives)
P0 : 02 : 00 --> indicates 2nd expander board, 1st drive, slot31 (out of 60 drives)
The controller will recognize both backplanes in the system and assigns them enclosure IDs.
These IDs are assigned randomly regardless of how the backplanes are physically connected.
When using the MegaRAID utility, the customer may see the first backplane first then the
second backplane or vice versa. In either case, drives may be identified through the naming
rule shown above.
Installing Optional NVMe Drives
The SSG-6049P-E1CR60H/L/L+ supports the option for six 2.5" hot-swappable NVMe drives
in tool less hard drive carriers, which are mounted in a fixed NVMe drive cage. The NVMe
drive cage must be installed prior to removing the drives. Once installed, the drive cage
permits the NVMe drives and their carriers to be removed without powering down the system.
Installing the NVMe Drive Cage
1. Power down the system as described in Section 3.1 and open the chassis cover as
described in Section 3.2.
2. Place the NVMe drive cage into the storage chassis as illustrated below.
3. Press the NVMe drive cage into the storage chassis until it clicks into the locked
position.
