FOREWORD
This manual is writing for the installation and usage information of
RMC4236-670-HSE chassis that provided to professional system integrators and
personal computer technicians. The installation and maintenance should be
conducted by experienced technicians only.
Gooxi RMC4236-670-HSE, the fourth generation of server chassis is designed
based on standard 2U server and can be assembled into common computing server,
storage server, servers in Internet cafe, database server, VOD storage server,
HPC server, and so on. The server chassis is different from ordinary desktop
chassis that pays more attention to appearance design, as it focuses on the
quality and content. Gooxi RMC4236-670-HSE server chassis uses imported first-
class SGCC galvanized steel, and possessed with the characteristics of
fingerprint resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, heat transfer
and thermal reflectivity, formability as well as weldability.
In addition, taking into account the higher stability requirements of the
server during usage, Gooxi RMC4236-670-HSE server chassis has excellent heat
dispersion. To be specific, the heat dissipation channel is reasonably
designed, which can take away a large amount of heat in the chassis to ensure
the stable operation of the server.
The scalability is an important factor to determine whether the server chassis
design is reasonable. Gooxi RMC4236-670-HSE server chassis has stronger
scalability than ordinary chassis, such as: hard disk expansion, peripheral
expansion, etc.
