- Installing the Tool-Less Rail Solution Determine where to place the rails in the rack. Make sure there is enough space in the rack for the 4U chassis. In a standard rack, the height of a 4U chassis will span 12 rack post holes. Use the marking indicated on the left and right sides of the rail to orient the rail correctly to the rack posts. Attach the left rail and stopping bracket to the rack. a

Sled Bay Numbering
The PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure is divided into ten vertical bays. A
C8220 single-wide compute sled occupies one sled bay in the server enclosure
and a C8220X double-wide compute sled or C8000XD storage sled occupies
two sled bays in the server enclosure. When installing a sled module into the
server enclosure, you should install the sled module in sled bay 1 first, then
work toward the right of the enclosure.
