BLOCK CHASSIS SLED HAVING ONE-THIRD WIDTH COMPUTING AND STORAGE NODES FOR INCREASED PROCESSING AND STORAGE CONFIGURATION FLEXIBILITY WITHIN A MODULAR, SCALABLE AND/OR EXPANDABLE RACK-BASED INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM
BLOCK CHASSIS SLED HAVING ONE-THIRD WIDTH COMPUTING AND STORAGE NODES FOR INCREASED PROCESSING AND STORAGE CONFIGURATION FLEXIBILITY WITHIN A MODULAR, SCALABLE AND/OR EXPANDABLE RACK-BASED INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM
Modular, expandable rack assembly physically supports components of information handling systems. Base structure of interconnected panels form volumetric space having front section and rear section, with opposing side panels forming front access space and rear access space, respectively, having width that supports insertion of standard full-width IT gear. Guides are located within interior surfaces of opposing side panels at the front section to rear section. Block chassis has frame that provides block height to enable insertion of at least one layer of up to N side-by-side fully functional IT gears within block chassis, which in turn is physically inserted into front section of base structure and held in place by opposing guides of opposing side panels. When N is 3, three side-by-side one-third width IT sleds, each containing IT gear, are inserted in respective one-third width IT bays of block chassis.
