RA7000 Cluster Kit

Pedestal version: FR-CK700-UP

Rackmount version: FR-CK700-UR

The RA7000 Cluster Kit supports up to 24 SBBs, and provides dual redundant RAID controllers support, eliminating the RAID controller as a single point of failure. The RA7000 includes the StorageWorks HSZ70 controller, a 6-channel ultra-wide controller. Each channel is capable of supporting up to 14 drives, and expansion cabinet options are available for both the office enclosure and rackmount packaging that allows for disk expansion options up to 72 disks. The first RA7000 cabinet can be expanded with one or two expansion cabinets for a total of 48 or 72 disks. Using 9.1GB disks, the RA7000 provides 218GB of capacity in a single cabinet, 436GB with one expansion cabinet and 655GB fully expanded to three cabinets. The RA7000 supports RAID levels 0, 1, 0+1, and adaptive 3/5, as well as JBOD configurations. The RA7000 comes with 64 MB mirrored write- back cache, which is expandable to 128 MB. The RA7000 has five 180-watt power supplies, which are expandable to eight.

The RA7000 Cluster Kit does not include base clustering software (DCNT or NTS/E must be purchased separately).

The RA7000 Cluster Kits support both Intel-based and Alpha-based DIGITAL Servers.
