RA450 Cluster Kit

Pedestal version: FR-CK450-RP

Rackmount version: FR-CK450-RR

The RA450 Cluster Kit supports up to 24 SBBs, which can consist of disk drives and cache batteries in hot-swap carriers. The pedestal enclosure supports up to 218GB; rackmount supports up to 873GB using 9GB disks. The RA450 supports SCSI disks of 1, 2, 4, 9, and 18GB (with HSOF 5.1) disks. The RA450 also supports dual redundant RAID controllers, eliminating the RAID controller as a single point of failure. The RA450 includes the StorageWorks HSZ50 controller, a 6-channel fast-narrow controller. Each channel is capable of supporting up to 7 drives, although no optional cabinets currently exist beyond 24 disks. No second expansion cabinet is available for the RA450. The RA450 supports RAID levels 0, 1, 0+1, and adaptive 3/5, as well as JBOD configurations.
