1-3 Server Chassis Features
The SuperServer 5014C-T is built on the SC811T-260 1U rackmount server
chassis. The following is a general outline of the main features of the
SC811T-260 chassis.
System Power
When configured as a SuperServer 5014C-T, the SC811T-260 chassis in-
cludes a single 260W power supply.
Serial ATA Subsystem
For the 5014C-T, the SC811T-260 chassis was designed to support two
Serial ATA hard drives. The Serial ATA drives are hot-swappable units.
ATA/100 IDE drives can be alternately supported.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the
hot-swap capability of the Serial ATA drives.
Control Panel
The control panel on the SC811T-260 provides important system monitoring
and control information. LEDs indicate power on, network activity, hard
disk drive activity and system overheat conditions. The control panel also
includes a main power button and a system reset button.
Rear I/O Panel
The SC811T-260 is a 1U rackmount chassis. Its I/O panel provides one
motherboard expansion slot, one COM port (another is internal), two USB
ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports, a graphics port and two Gb Ethernet
ports. (See Figure 1-2.)
Cooling System
The SC811 chassis has an innovative cooling design that features two 10-
cm blower system cooling fans. The blower fans plug into a chassis fan
header on the motherboard. A fan speed control setting in BIOS allows fan
speed to be determined by system temperature [the recommended setting is
3-pin (Server)].
