Product Description
The HP D5989C is a specialized Midplane Ultra 3 SCSI Controller Card Board, integral to the storage architecture of HP Netserver Rack Storage solutions. Unlike traditional add-in cards, this midplane board is designed to slot directly into the server's chassis, connecting to the backplane and providing the necessary interface for multiple SCSI hard drives. This integration allows for a cleaner internal layout and efficient power and data distribution to the storage devices housed within the rack server. Operating with Ultra 3 SCSI technology (also known as Ultra 160 SCSI), the D5989C facilitates high-speed data transfers, reaching theoretical maximums of 160MB/s. This performance level is critical for demanding server workloads that require rapid access to data, such as file serving, application hosting, and database operations. The controller's design typically supports both LVD (Low Voltage Differential) and SE (Single-Ended) SCSI modes, offering flexibility in drive compatibility, although LVD is preferred for performance and cable length. As a core component of HP's storage infrastructure for its Netserver line, the D5989C ensures seamless integration and reliable operation of SCSI storage arrays. It manages the communication between the server's main system and the connected hard drives, often supporting features like RAID configurations (depending on the specific server model and associated firmware/software) to enhance data redundancy and performance. This controller board is essential for maintaining the storage capabilities and performance of compatible HP Netserver systems.
