Oliebol node type details

Hardware configuration

Oliebol nodes are 4u Supermicro diskservers with 24 front-loading and 12 back-loading SAS disks.

The Supermicro chassis type is 847.

There are two internal 3.5" disks that are hard to reach because they're underneath the motherboard subframe, which can be slid out backwards (requires the removal of one additional screw in addition to the four required to remove the top.)

Opening the chassis means removing it from the rack, which requires at least two people.
