is turned toward the
rear of the chassis
Blower Default Position
With most compatible SuperMicro motherboards, the blowers remain in the default
position. The default position is the tray in the furthest right position. The left blower
is directed toward the rear of the chassis. The right blower is turned to the left.
Blower Secondary Position
The following only applies to non-"U" brand chassis. When using a SuperMicro
motherboard with an AMD CPU, do the following:
1. Disconnect the blowers from the motherboard and remove the foam barrier from
the chassis.
2. Move the rack one position to the left.
3. Remove the right blower and turn it so that it points directly toward the rear of
the chassis.
4. Confi rm that the fi rst blower is also turned toward the rear of the chassis.
5. Replace the foam barrier using the foam from the accessory box. This foam is
especially measured for the secondary blower position.
The Right Blower
is angled to the side
