Max. raw capacity (PB): 8PB
Drives Supported: SAS, NL-SAS and Flash
Max DAE: 33
RAID Options: 1/0, 5, 6
Max Memory: 128GB
Supported Back-End I/O modules: Four-port 12-Gb/s SAS

12-drive DPE:
3.4” high x 17.5” wide x 27” deep (8.64 cm x 44.45 cm x 68.58 cm)
65 lb (29 kg)
25-drive DPE:
3.4” high x 17.5” wide x 24.17” deep (8.64 cm x 44.45 cm x 61.39 cm)
44 lb (20 kg)
Disk Array Enclosure (DAE)

The Dell EMC Unity 500 supports all three types of DAE’s with a max being either 33 DAE’s or 500 drives. When calculating the number of drives make sure to count the DPE drives as well in the total.

  • 2U 25-drive DAE with 2.5-inch drives FLASH and SAS
  • 3U 15-drive DAE with 3.5-inch drives FLASH, SAS and NL-SAS
  • 3U 80-drive DAE with 2.5-inch drives FLASH and SAS

If you are looking for rich features and absolute simplicity in a small footprint, if you are cost-conscious and need the best from the best, Dell EMC Unity Hybrid Flash is for you. Designed for flash with rich data services, it delivers flash performance with the cost advantage of disk.

All Hybrid Models support 2 Drive Carrier types. The 12x3.5” and the 25x2.5”. Flash models only support the 25x2.5” model. Each unit has 2 Storage Processors (SP’s) in the rear with each 2 configurable ports and 2 Module slots that can hold up to 6 different modules.

The Dell EMC Unity hybrid models are the only ones to support FAST and FAST VP technology which helps with tiered storage and accessibility to high-frequency data.


Standby Power Supply

12 DPE

AC 100 to 240 VAC ± 10%, single phase, 47 to 63 Hz
DC Line Voltage -39 to -72 V DC (Nominal -48V or -60V power systems)

25 DPE

AC 100 to 240 VAC ± 10%, single phase, 47 to 63 Hz
DC Line Voltage -39 to -72 V DC (Nominal -48V or -60V power systems)


FAST Cache:

A feature that allows Flash drives to be configured as a large-capacity secondary cache for the pools on the system. Only allowed in a Hybrid Dell EMC Unity.

FAST VP:

Accelerates the performance of a specific storage pool by automatically moving data within that pool to the appropriate drive technology, based on data access patterns. For applications which are continuously active, consider configuring FAST VP relocations to run constantly.
