Setting the cooling fan speed for 8 TB drives
Prerequisites
NOTE: Dell EMC recommends 8 TB drives be used only in systems configured with a PERC controller.
CAUTION: Using 8 TB drives in the system without a PERC controller might cause drive 1 to overheat under
excessive work load, leading to a potential failure of the drive.
About this task
When 8 TB drives are used in a system without a PERC controller, the speed of the cooling fan must be manually adjusted to
prevent the drives from overheating.
Steps
1. To enter the iDRAC menu, press F2 or F11 during post.
