This front view of Intel's system shows the lower bay filled with 16 "sleds" to house the hard drives. Each sled is a metal housing with three 2.5-inch hard drives mounted to it; Intel said it expects four will fit, too.

Although the design looks like a disk array, it's actually a relatively simple architecture in which each microserver gets its own group of hard drives.
