Examples implementations relate to configuration of computational drives. An example computational drive includes a housing to be inserted in a drive bay of a host device, and persistent storage. The computational drive may also include a processor to respond to an insertion of the housing into the drive bay of the host device by configuring the computational drive to operate as a new node of a distributed file system, and connecting the computational drive to the distributed file system as the new node.
