How to install Supermicro SuperChassis SC847A-R1400LPB

Follow these steps to prepare, install, and configure the SC847A-R1400LPB in a standard data-center rack. This guide emphasizes safety, alignment, and proper airflow to maximize performance and longevity.

  • Plan your rack space: Verify your rack depth and mounting rails are compatible with a 4U enclosure. Confirm that the rack can support the combined weight of 36 drives and redundant power supplies. Have the necessary rack screws and hardware ready, and ensure an unobstructed airflow path in front of the chassis.
  • Position and secure the chassis: With assistance if needed, lift the SC847A-R1400LPB into the rack and align the mounting ears with the rack rails. Use cage nuts and screws to secure the chassis firmly, ensuring a level fit to avoid vibration or misalignment during operation.
  • Connect power supplies: Install and connect both 1400 W redundant power supplies as required by your data-center policy. Attach power cords to redundant power inputs and route cables to prevent clutter that could impede airflow. Confirm that the PSU indicators show healthy status after power-up.
  • Install motherboard and components: Prepare ATX or EATX motherboard installation inside the chassis following vendor guidelines. Install the motherboard standoffs, CPU, memory, and any PCIe add-in cards in the appropriate slots. Connect essential power rails and front-panel connectors, ensuring clean, orderly cable routing to maximize airflow to the 36 drive bays.
  • Mount and wire drives: Install 36 x external 3.5" drives into their drive trays or backplane as designed for this chassis. Secure each drive and connect SATA/SAS data cables and power lines, taking care to minimize cable length and avoid pinching or crossing them over fans or airflow channels.
  • Check cooling and airflow: Verify all seven fans are connected and operational. Confirm that airflow is directed from front to back, with no obstructions that could cause hotspots around critical components or drive bays.
  • Initial boot and BIOS configuration: Power on the system and enter the BIOS to confirm hardware recognition for storage, memory, and PCIe devices. Adjust boot order and enable any vendor-specific options that optimize I/O responsiveness and power management for your workloads.
  • Install the operating system and drivers: Mount your preferred OS on the storage array and install any necessary motherboard and storage drivers. Update firmware on the backplane, drives, and expansion cards if available to ensure compatibility and performance.
  • Plan for maintenance: Establish a routine for monitoring drive health, temperature, and power supply status. Schedule periodic firmware updates and replace aging components promptly to prevent unexpected downtime.

The squeeker isn't durable, but the balls themselves are.
Color: S6-muti-color, Color: S6-muti-color
I have two 70+lb, ball obsessed dogs (a field bred Golden Retriever, and an Old Time Scotch Collie), and these balls are living up to the abuse they're receiving. In the fall we always lose a ball or two in the yard due to getting lost in leaves or longer grass, so I always try and buy a multi pack at the start of the season, so went with these this year. I'm glad I did. Great price for a 6 pack, they fit the medium Chuck-It launcher (a little loosely, but they throw just fine), have great bounce, they FLOAT (which means I didn't lose any at the beach), and they're super durable to the dreaded "mouth squish." The squeaker dies pretty quick, like, within a day, but it isn't the kind that can fall out or choke your dog, so no worries there. The boys are happy, I'm happy, my wallet is happy - I've already ordered another pack.

Great Value for a ball my dog loves!
Color: S6-muti-color
I wish these ball were in the subscription program! My dog gets sooo excited by the new ball, but her interest in things lasts for a few days. She kills the squeak within 11minutes, but the squeaker stays in place rather than becoming a chocking or swallow hazard, and she still loves to chew it. Next, we must throw the ball approximately 723 times the first day, possibly 496 times on day 2, and just 3- 4 on day 3, at which point she will chase the ball before hollering "it's over here if you need it," while she checks on the chipmunk den. We currently have 17 of these balls in our yard (because we have given several leftovers to a less discriminating doodle next door). These balls hold up really well, get her extremely active for the first couple of days, and are a much cheaper than doggie daycare (after an active morning with a new ball, she is happy to chew on it and sleep much of the day). I always have these on hand!

Pieces chewed off
Color: white & green
My Aussiedoodle loves it. I throw it down the hallway, it bounces crazy, and he chases it. The only complaint is that he can't chew much of the ball part. So now I have to have it put away and brought out for special playtime.
