VNXe3150 Storage Processor Enclosure (SPE) enables VNXe3150 customers to keep pace with their growing businesses by expanding their system storage capacity. The VNXe3150's intuitive design easily allows you to add new disks that can be used to expand existing storage pools or create new pools.
- - 15-bay 3.5" or 25-bay 2.5"
- - 3.5" & 2.5" SAS / NL-SAS / Flash
- - RAID 5 / 6 / 10
- - NAS / iSCSI
- - Gigabit Ethernet
The VNXe3300 system with built-in disk storage can be used with two controllers and supports multi-protocol IP connectivity for concurrent NAS and iSCSI SANs. Great for small to medium sized businesses, the VNXe3300 can easily expand to fit your storage needs by adding any required mix of performance SAS, NL-SAS or Flash drives to meet capacity and performance enterprise needs. The VNXe3300 supports iSCSI, CIFS and NFS.
EMC VNXe3300 Base Knowledge
This EMC VNXe3300 is a bit different than the VNXe 3100 and 3150 DPEs. This 3U Disk Processor Enclosure (DPE) can handle more drives and has many more ports for networking abilities. The Storage Processors on the VNXe 3300 has a lot more power and 3 time the amount of RAM than the VNXe3100 SP’s.
Form Factor: 3U
Chassis: 12 LFF / 25 SFF
Max Drives: 120 to 150 Disk Drives.
Drives Supported: The disk drives supported are Serial attached-SCSI (SAS), near-line SAS (NL-SAS), Flash, and Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs) for SAS and NL-SAS.
You cannot mix non-SED and SED drives. Either all non-SED or all SED.
Storage Processor (SP)
A CPU module with an Intel Xeon Quad Core 2.13-GHz processor with three Double Data Rate Three (DDR3) synchronous dynamic RAM (SDRAM) slots supporting 12 GB of memory per SP
I/O Configurations:
Four-port 1-Gb/s (1000Base-T) copper iSCSI Ethernet (labeled 1 GbE on the latch handle)
Two-port 10-Gb/s optical iSCSI (labeled 10 GbE iSCSI on the latch handle)
Two-port 10-Gb/s RJ-45 Base-T (labeled 10 GbE Base-T on the latch handle)
Any combination of the above I/O modules is supported. However, both SPs must have the same I/O module configuration.
Supported DAEs
Either a 2U, 15 (3.5-inch) disk drive DAE (DAE6S) or a 2U, 25 (2.5-inch) disk drive DAE (DAE5S) is supported in several configurations. View the image above to see those configurations.
