Use this information to install a RAID super capacitor module on the bottom of the air baffle.

Note
Your server supports up to two RAID super capacitor modules.
  • For server models with 3.5-inch drive bays, install the first RAID super capacitor module in location 1 and install the second RAID super capacitor module in location 2.

  • For server models with 2.5-inch drive bays:
    • If you have a RAID super capacitor module holder in location 3, install the first RAID super capacitor module in location 3 and install the second RAID super capacitor module in location 1.

    • If you do not have a RAID super capacitor module holder in location 3, you can install the first RAID super capacitor module in location 1 and install the second RAID super capacitor module in location 2.
