The new 12Gb SAS controllers offer the latest technology in high-speed connectivity. The MD3 models offer improved performance and double the existing bandwidth. Your data should be available when you need it. The MD3 Series offers 8GB cache on dual-controller options in SAS, providing up to 16 GB total cache per array. The next generation of MD3 has the efficiency you need to meet your demanding I/O requirements. You get high availability and high performance without sacrificing ease of use.
Reduce the effort required to store and manage your data. The MD3 Series is available in 12 x 3.5” hard drive or 24 x 2.5” hard drive form factors, or in the high-density enclosure that holds up to 60 x 2.5” or 3.5” hard drives. And because your storage needs are almost guaranteed to grow, capacity can be added as you need it. The 60-HDD array can expand to 120 drives (180 drives with premium feature kit) with its own, specially designed high-density enclosure, the MD3060e.
Below are general configuration rules for MD3400 series of arrays.
- Up to 2 direct attached MD3060e with redundant I/O paths to a dual controller storage array
- Up to 32 physical hosts can be supported on a single storage system (includes both single and dual controller models)
- SSD drives are limited to a single shelf (60 drives for a MD3460 )
- MD3060e storage enclosure can be add to a MD3460 storage array for expansion up to 120 disks (180 disks with premium feature kit)
- Up to 30 hard disk drives per disk group in a RAID 5 & RAID 6
- Up to 120 hard disk drives per disk group in a RAID1/10
- RAID level configurations 0, 1, 5, 6 or 10.
- Disk groups with different RAID levels can coexist in a single storage system.
- Disk groups are comprised of either SSD or SAS drives. A given disk group cannot have both SSD and SAS drives.
- Up to 512 virtual disks (LUNs) per storage array
- Each virtual disk can support 128 snapshots, with a maximum of 512 snapshots per storage array.
