Chapter 1: Introduction
1-5 Server Installation and Setup
The server is shipped with the onboard processor and the motherboard installed in the chassis. Several steps are necessary to begin using your server. You must add memory, mount the hard disk drive, and mount the system in place.
Unpacking the System
Inspect the box in which the system was shipped and note if it was damaged. If the server itself shows damage, file a damage claim with the carrier.
Warnings and Precautions
•Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
•Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Appendix B.
Adding Components to your System
•Memory: If your system is not already fully integrated with system memory, refer to Chapter 2 for details on compatible types of memory and the installation procedure.
•Drives and Storage: To add storage capabilities to your server, see Chapter 2.
•Input/Output: See Chapter 3 for I/O ports and connect them as needed.
•Software: See Chapter 4 for description and procedures for installing software, including drivers and monitoring programs.

Installing Rack Mounting Brackets
The chassis can be mounted in a rack using two rack brackets and a two-part power adapter shelf bracket (optional, MCP-290-30002-0B).
1.Attach the rack brackets using three screws through the holes in each bracket to secure the bracket to the chassis.
2.Install the handles, using two screws through the bracket and into each handle.
3.If you are using the optional power adapter bracket, install the power adapter on its bracket. Place it as shown, then add the retention bracket using two screws.
4.Mount the power adapter bracket assembly on the right side of the chassis using three screws.

Chapter 2
Maintenance and Component Installation
This chapter provides instructions on installing and replacing main system components. To prevent compatibility issues, only use components that match the specifications and/or part numbers given.
Installation or replacement of most components require that power first be removed from the system. Please follow the procedures given in each section.
2.1 Removing Power
Use the following procedure to ensure that power has been removed from the system. This step is necessary when removing or installing non hot-swap components or when replacing a non-redundant power supply.
1.Use the operating system to power down the system.
2.After the system has completely shut-down, disconnect the AC adapter power cord from the power source.
3.Disconnect the power cord from the chassis.

2.2 Accessing the System
The SCE300 features a removable top cover to access to the inside of the chassis.

Figure 2-1. Removing the Chassis Cover
Removing the Top Cover
1.Power down the system as described in section 2.1.
2.Remove the two screws that hold the cover in place.
3.Slide the cover sideways as illustrated above to release the front and rear cover hooks from the chassis.
4.Lift the cover up and off the chassis.
Caution: Except for short periods of time, do not operate the server without the cover in place. The chassis cover must be in place to allow proper airflow and prevent overheating.

2.3 Motherboard Components
Processor
The E300 - 9D - 4CN8TP/E300 - 9D - 8CN8TP system features an embedded Intel® Xeon® D-2123IT, 4-core/D-2146NT, 8-core processor.
Memory Support
The X11SDV-4C-TP8F/8C-TP8F motherboard supports up to 512GB of DDR4-2666/2400/2133 ECC LRDIMM or up to 256GB of DDR4-2666/2400/2133 ECC/non-ECC RDIMM memory in four DIMM slots. Populating these DIMM slots with memory modules of the same type and size will result in interleaved memory, which will improve memory performance.
Note: Check the Supermicro website for recommended memory modules.

Installing Memory
When installing memory modules, the DIMM slots should be populated in the following order: DIMMB1, DIMMA1, DIMME1 DIMMD1.
•Always use DDR4 DIMM modules of the same size, type and speed. Mixing memory modules of different types and speeds is not allowed.
•The motherboard will support one DIMM module installed. However, for best memory performance, install DIMM modules in pairs.
Caution: Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent damage.
Installing Memory
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 2.1.
1.Starting with DIMMB1, push the release tabs outwards on both ends of the DIMM slot to unlock it.

|
Module Notch |
Socket Key |
Locking Clip |
|
2.Align the key of the DIMM with the receptive point on the memory slot and with your thumbs on both ends of the module, press it straight down into the slot until the module snaps into place.
3.Press the release tabs to the locked position to secure the DIMM module into the slot. Repeat for other DIMM slots as needed in the order given above:
To remove a DIMM, unlock the release tabs then pull the DIMM from the memory slot.

Solid State Storage
This motherboard supports four internally mounted solid state storage cards:
•Four SATA 3.0 ports(SATA/SAS HDD/SSD).
•Two ports can be used as U.2 NVMe ports or Mini-SAS HD ports.

21
SuperServer E300-9D-4CN8TP/E300-9D-8CN8TP User's Manual
Motherboard Battery
The motherboard uses non-volatile memory to retain system information when system power is removed. This memory is powered by a lithium battery residing on the motherboard.
Figure 2-3. Installing the Onboard Battery
Replacing the Battery
1.Remove power from the system as described in section 3.1.
2.Push aside the small clamp that covers the edge of the battery. When the battery is released, lift it out of the holder.
3.To insert a new battery, slide one edge under the lip of the holder with the positive (+) side facing up. Then push the other side down until the clamp snaps over it.
Note: Handle used batteries carefully. Do not damage the battery in any way; a damaged battery may release hazardous materials into the environment. Do not discard a used battery in the garbage or a public landfill. Please comply with the regulations of your local hazardous waste management agency to dispose of your used battery properly.
Warning: There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down (which reverses its polarities). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer (CR2032).
22
Chapter 2 Maintenance and Component Installation
2.4 Chassis Components
Installing the Storage Drive
The SCE300 can accommodate a single fixed 2.5" storage drive. It is installed to a mounting tray inside the chassis. Use an enterprise quality drive.
Figure 2-4. Installing the Hard Drive
Installing the Hard Drive
The motherboard should be installed before installing the drive.
1.Make sure there is no power to the system as described in section 2.1 and remove the chassis cover.
2.Remove the screws securing the hard drive tray to the support bracket and set them aside for later use. Lift the tray out.
3.Place the drive into the tray and secure it to the tray with the screws provided with drive.
23
SuperServer E300-9D-4CN8TP/E300-9D-8CN8TP User's Manual
4.Return the drive tray assembly into the chassis, aligning the tabs of the tray with the slots in the chassis. Secure the tray to the chassis support bracket with the screws previously set aside.
5.Attach the cable SATA connector and to the motherboard connector. This cable carries both the SATA signal and the SATA power.
6.Reinstall the chassis cover and power up the system.
Installing the Riser Card
The system can support one PCI-E x8 expansion card by means of an optional riser card. The riser card is inserted in the expansion slot on the motherboard. Installation of the riser card and riser card bracket is pictured below.

System Cooling
The SCE300 may have up to three 4-cm fans installed. The fans are optional parts.
Replacing the System Fan
1.Power down the system as described in section 2.1 and remove the AC power cord and the chassis cover.
2.Remove the failed fan power cable from motherboard.
3.Remove the screws securing the fan to the chassis wall and save them.
4.Lift the fan out of the chassis.
5.Align the replacement fan with the holes in the wall of the chassis.
6.Secure the fan to the chassis wall using the screws previously set aside.
7.Reconnect the fan cable to motherboard.
8.Reinstall the chassis top cover, reconnect the AC power cord and power up the system.
