Overview

  • The PowerScale F210 is a 1U chassis based on the PowerEdge R660. A minimum of three nodes is required to form a cluster and a maximum of 252 nodes. The F210 is node pool compatible with the F200. For more details, see the Brownfield Clusters section.

    The front panel of the F210 has a bezel protecting the 4 NVMe SSD drives, as displayed in the image below. The bezel has an LCD panel providing system information, status, iDRAC IP address and error messages. Removing the bezel provides access to the 4 drives. The LED alarm indicator is located on the left of the front panel.
