System Fans
Four 4-cm high-performance fans provide the cooling for the SuperServer 5015B-
MT. The chassis includes air seals under the fans and at the chassis cross section,
which separates the drive bay area from the motherboard area of the chassis to
promote better airfl ow. It is highly important that the air seal is properly installed
and making a good seal in order for the cooling air to circulate properly through
the chassis.
The fans can adjust their speed according to the heat level sensed in the system,
which results in more effi cient and quieter fan operation. Fan speed is controlled
by a setting in BIOS.
System Fan Failure
If a fan fails, you will need to have it replaced with the same type. Contact your
vendor or Supermicro for information on replacement fans.

Drive Bay Installation/Removal
Removing the Front Bezel
If your system has a front bezel (optional) attached to the chassis, you must fi rst
remove it to gain access to the drive bays. To remove the bezel, fi rst unlock the
front of the chassis then press the release knob (see Figure 6-3). Carefully re-
move the bezel with both hands. A fi lter located within the bezel can be removed
for replacement/cleaning. It is recommended that you keep a maintenance log of
fi lter cleaning/replacement, since its condition will affect the airfl ow throughout the
whole system.
