    A Pillar Axiom 42U rack can contain any combination of:
    • One Pilot
    • One to four Slammers, which can be a mix of network attached storage and storage area network Slammers.
    • One to 16 Bricks
    • One to four power distribution units (PDUs).
    Notes:
    • A second cabinet can hold up to 19 Bricks (no Slammers or Pilot).

    • The center of gravity of a populated Pillar 42U rack is toward the front.
      The threshold tilt angle depends on whether the front or back of the rack faces down
      the slope:
      • Front faces downward: 12° maximum slope.
      • Back faces downward: 24° maximum slope.
