Chapter 1: Introduction

1-3 Server Chassis Features

The following is a general outline of the main features of the SC827HD-R1400B 2U chassis. Details on the chassis can be found in Chapter 6.

System Power

When configured as a SuperServer 6026TT-GTRF/GIBXRF/GIBQRF, the SC827HD- R1400B includes a redundant (dual) 1400W power supply, which provides power to all four serverboards (nodes). If either power supply failes, the other will allow the system to continue to run.

SATA Subsystem

The SC827HD-R1400B chassis was designed to support twelve SATA hard drives, which are hot-swappable units. There are six hard drives per node in the system.

Control Panel

The SC827HD-R1400B features two independant control panels associated with each serverboard (node) in the chassis. Each control panel has LEDs to indicate power on, network activity, power fail, fan fail, system overheat conditions and the UID LED. Each control panel also includes a main power button and a UID but- ton.

Rear I/O Panel

The SC827HD-R1400B is a 2U rackmount chassis. Each node supports two full-height, full-length PCI expansion cards (or one double-width card), one COM port, two USB ports, one VGA port and two Gb Ethernet ports. See Chapter 6 for details.

Cooling System

The SC827HD-R1400B chassis has an innovative cooling design that features four 8-cm high-performance fans. A fan speed control setting in BIOS allows fan speed to be determined by system temperature. See Chapter 6 for details.
