Hard Disk Drive Support Intel® Server Chassis H2000 Family TPS Figure 17. 3.5" HDD Assembly Overview Figure 18. 2.5" HDD Assembly Overview Hot-swap drive carriers make insertion and extraction of the drive from the system very simple. Each type of drive carrier has its own latching mechanism, which is used to both insert and extract drives from the chassis and lock the carrier in place. Each type of drive carrier supports two light pipes to direct light from the drive status LEDs on the backplane to the carrier's face allowing it to be viewable from the front of the system. 5.3 Hot-Swap Hard Drive Support Both the Intel® Server Chassis H2312xx and H2216xx can support hot-swap SATA/SAS hard drives. Hard drives interface with the passive backplane through a blind mate connection when drives are installed into a hard drive bay using hot-swap drive carriers. Each compute node in the system has dedicated Hot Swap Controller (HSC) to manage three or four HDDs. There are totally four sets of independent Programmable System On Chip (PSOC) on the backplane, to function as HSC respectively to four compute nodes. The following sections describe the feature and connections between the backplane and server board. 5.3.1 Backplane Feature set: ƒ Common HSBP Microcontroller Cypress* PSoC 1 part 30 Revision 1.0 Intel order number: G59059-001
