Product Description
The HP 434879-B21 is a StorageWorks Sb40c Storage Blade, a component designed to integrate directly into HP's BladeSystem infrastructure. This specific model is a 6-bay array, meaning it provides six physical slots for 3.5-inch hard disk drives. It is a CTO (Configure-to-Order) unit, indicating that the specific configuration, including the type and number of drives installed, is determined at the time of purchase to meet specific customer requirements. This storage blade connects to the HP BladeSystem enclosure and provides direct-attached storage (DAS) capabilities to the servers housed within the same enclosure. It supports both SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) and SATA (Serial ATA) hard drives, offering flexibility in drive selection based on performance, capacity, and cost requirements. The 3.5-inch form factor allows for the use of larger capacity enterprise-grade hard drives. The primary purpose of the 434879-B21 is to offer scalable and high-density storage solutions for environments utilizing HP BladeSystem servers. By adding these storage blades, organizations can significantly increase their storage capacity without consuming additional rack space outside the blade enclosure. Depending on the specific configuration and the BladeSystem enclosure's capabilities, it may also support hot-plugging of drives, allowing for drive replacement or addition without interrupting server operations.
