Chassis front view

The following illustrations show the front view of the chassis installed with nodes.

The ThinkSystem D3 Chassis can contain up to four 1U nodes or up to two 2U nodes.

Important
  • For proper cooling, each node tray must be installed with either a node or node tray fillers before the nodes in the chassis are powered on.
  • The installation of nodes must follow the sequence of the tray numbering.

Four 1U nodes​

For four 1U nodes: the two nodes in the right trays ( 2 and 4 ) must be installed upside down.

The following illustration shows the front view of the chassis and respective node trays in the chassis.
