When discussing IT equipment, especially servers, the term 'chassis' often appears. It may seem complex at first. However, knowing what your gear is can help you make better choices.
A chassis is the physical frame or case that holds all the parts of a server. Think of it as the body of the server, while the CPU, RAM, hard drives, and motherboard are like the internal organs. Just like a car needs a strong frame to hold the engine, wheels, and seats, a server needs a chassis to organize, protect, and cool its parts.
If a server is the brain of your setup, then the chassis is its skeleton and skin. It keeps everything together, controls temperature, and makes maintenance and upgrades easy.
A typical server chassis holds all the important hardware needed for the system to work, including: • Motherboard • Processor(s) (CPU) • Memory (RAM) • Hard drives or SSDs • Power supply units (PSUs) • Cooling fans • Network cards or GPUs (in some cases)
