 On Limulus systems, blade removal begins by using the system control GUI (or command line tools) to remove power to the blade. Although blades are hot-pluggable, prior power removal ensures best results. Next the front of the case is removed to expose the blades (no tools needed). Once the blades are exposed, all network and data storage cables are easily removed. Finally, the thumb screws are loosened and used to pull the blade out. To replace the blade, the steps are performed in reverse.  On Limulus systems, blade removal begins by using the system control GUI (or command line tools) to remove power to the blade.

-The Limulus 2.0 μATX blade design provides convenient "big compute" to non-data center environments. Optimal design and the use of 3-D printing provides a powerful yet flexible approach to local computing solutions (e.g. office, lab, classroom, or factory). In addition, the use of high-quality commodity priced components allows industry leading price to performance. The modular design allows virtually any standard μATX motherboard and off-the-shelf hardware to be combined into a dense high-performance computing resource.+The Limulus 2.0 μATX blade design provides convenient "big computing" to non-data center environments.
