How to install Supermicro SuperChassis 823MTQC-R802LPB

  • Verify that your rack space and rails are compatible with a 2U chassis and that the rack is stable and properly grounded.
  • Power down the facility and unplug all equipment before beginning installation to ensure safety and protect components.
  • Mount the chassis into the rack using the appropriate mounting hardware, ensuring it is level and securely fastened to prevent vibration during operation.
  • Install the motherboard into the chassis, aligning with the I/O shield and standoff pattern for EATX, ATX, or EE-ATX, then tighten screws to secure the board in place.
  • Insert memory, add PCIe cards, and connect any required storage controllers or NVMe adapters according to your build plan, keeping airflow paths clear of cables and obstructions.
  • Connect the dual 800W power supplies, ensuring both units are seated correctly and wired to provide redundant or shared power as your configuration requires.
  • Install the 3 external 3.5" bays with the desired drives, and configure storage in BIOS/UEFI or your operating system’s RAID controller software as needed.
  • Route all power, data, and fan cables neatly behind the motherboard tray or along cable management channels to maximize airflow and simplify maintenance.
  • Close the chassis panels, re-check all connections, and power on the system to perform initial POST tests and hardware recognition checks.
  • Fine-tune fan curves and thermal settings in BIOS/UEFI if needed, balancing cooling performance with noise considerations for your environment.
