Product Description
The HP StorageWorks D2700 (AW525A) is a 1U rack-mountable disk array enclosure designed to provide substantial storage expansion for HP ProLiant servers. This enclosure is equipped with 25 hot-plug drive bays, each capable of accommodating 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF) SAS or SATA hard drives. This flexibility allows organizations to tailor their storage configurations to meet specific performance and capacity requirements, supporting a mix of drive types for optimal balance. Connectivity is managed through dual SAS I/O ports, which enable redundant data paths and enhanced performance when connected to compatible HP Smart Array controllers. The hot-plug capability of the drive bays is a crucial feature for enterprise environments, allowing administrators to add, remove, or replace drives without interrupting server operations or data access. This significantly improves system uptime and simplifies storage management tasks. The AW525A is an ideal solution for businesses experiencing rapid data growth and requiring a scalable, high-density storage option. It integrates seamlessly with supported HP ProLiant server platforms, offering a unified and efficient way to expand storage capacity. Its 1U form factor makes it suitable for dense rack deployments, maximizing space utilization within the data center while delivering robust storage capabilities.
