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.

Not for strong chewers
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large
Initially, I really liked this for my dog. She is about 8 months old and still loves to chew and destroys most toys in a few minutes. When we got this, it seemed like it would hold up for a while despite being clearly gnawed on. Unfortunately, once she focused on the softer "water" portion of the toy, that is where things went downhill with this toy. After a few short chew sessions, she was tearing chunks out of it. We had purchased a replacement since she liked the original so much, and after about 5 minutes with the replacement, she had taken enough out of the blue section that we immediately threw that one out as well. Overall while the green portion held up, the blue didn't. I can't recommend this for strong chewers.

Definitely not indestructable
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large, Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large
I have a 1-year-old toy fox terrier (Rocky, pictured). He has been chewing on this toy for seven months now; it is one of his favorites. He has been unable to seriously damage the "ocean" portion of this toy, but as you can see from the provided image, the sea serpent has not faired that well. It is missing its snout and smaller portions of the humps. My guess is that the advertiser images showing much larger dogs with "like new" versions of the toy are just that...NEW AND UNCHEWED. I have not had to clean up bits of this toy from my floor, so I assume Rocky has been swallowing them. My hope is that the yellow material of the serpent is not chemically dangerous when exposed to digestive fluids. Rocky easily destroys plush toys in a matter of days if not hours and, consumed pieces of a small microfiber blanket that he liked to toss around and play tug-of-war with (past tense as he destroyed it and has since been trashed after I began finding feces-stained undigested pieces of it lying around). Since this toy has survived seven months and has remained recognizable, I have to agree it is durable. Just beware, if my small toy fox terrier can damage the toy as pictured, expect your large breed chewer to do similar or worse damage. Also, the toy is very heavy! When Rocky drops it down a flight of stairs, it makes a MAJOR thud at the bottom, and sometimes makes me wonder if it might crack the large tile at the bottom. I cautiously recommend the product. Note the yellow frisbee in Rocky's picture. It is only a few months old and surprisingly has not suffered any chew damage despite substantial abuse. It appears to bend in the wind like a proverbial reed, evading damage by yielding to pressure.

Dog loves it! For tough chewers for sure
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large, Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large
Dog absolutely loves it, he’s super rough on all of his toys they usually last about 10 minutes bore they are torn to shreds. It’s lasting through his chewing so I’m happy. It’s also super cute.

Cute toy, dog really likes it. I had my doubts when I pulled it out, and honestly so did she, but the soft part bounces, so that got her going. We've had it for about a week. My dog is ~70 lbs and a moderate chewer, and this monster still gets regular play and is holding up well.
