Product Description

The HP 682592-002 represents a core component of HP's 3PAR storage architecture, specifically designed as a disk shelf chassis. This unit is engineered to house multiple 10vxv4-Disk Magazines, which are the fundamental building blocks for expanding storage capacity within HP 3PAR environments. The chassis itself is more than just a container; it integrates essential connectivity and power distribution infrastructure, ensuring that each disk magazine operates efficiently and reliably. Central to the functionality of this disk shelf is the included Mid Plane DC4 v2 Board. This board acts as the central hub for communication and data transfer between the disk magazines and the storage controller. It manages the flow of data, power, and control signals, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance of all installed drives.
