Overview
This chapter provides an overview of the Cisco UCS C24 server features.
The figures in this chapter show an overview of external server features. Internal server features are
illustrated in
Figure 3-4 on page 3-9.
The server is orderable in three different versions, each with one of three different front panel/backplane
configurations:
• Cisco UCS C24 (small form-factor (SFF) drives, with 24-drive backplane and expander).
Holds up to twenty-four 2.5-inch hard drives or solid state drives.
• Cisco UCS C24 (small form-factor (SFF) drives, with 16-drive backplane, no expander).
Holds up to sixteen 2.5-inch hard drives or solid state drives.
• Cisco UCS C24 (large form-factor (LFF) drives, with 12-drive backplane and expander).
Holds up to twelve 3.5-inch hard drives.
Figure 1-1 shows the front panel features of the Small Form-Factor drives version of the server. This
version of the server can be ordered with either a 16-drive direct-connect backplane or a 24-drive
backplane with an expander. When the 16-drive backplane is installed, only the first 16 drive bays are
used.
