Storage Systems

Highlights

Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO1200 SATA configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500 mailboxes while AiO1200 SAS configurations support up to 1,500 mailboxes when using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines. Out of the box implementations for the AiO1200 will support approx 25% of these numbers. The AiO1200 is certified with VMWare ESX for iSCSI connectivity; due to the highly random read/write performance characteristics of VMFS we recommend SAS HDDs for use with VMWare ESX and VMFS.

HP StorageWorks All-in-This half-height all-in-one storage blade solution was designed for HP c-class One SB600c Storage BladeSystem environments and combines a BL460 server blade and SB40

Blade (AiO SB600c) storage blade. It provides shared storage expansion for blade servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO SB600c is an excellent solution for customers looking at c-3000 or c-7000 BladeSystem deployments. The AiO SB600c is available in a SAS configuration.
