—The product does not operate correctly when you follow the operating instructions.

•Keep your system components away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents.

•Do not spill food or liquids on your system components, and never operate the product in a wet environment. If the computer gets wet, see the appropriate chapter in your troubleshooting guide or contact a Dell-authorized service provider.

•Do not push any objects into the openings of your system components. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components.

•

•

Use the product only with Dell products or other Dell-approved equipment.

Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.

•Use the correct external power source. Operate the product only from the type of power source indicated on the electrical ratings label. If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult your Dell service provider or local power company.

•To help avoid damaging your system components, be sure the voltage selection switch (if provided) on the power supply is set to match the power available at your location:

—115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as South Korea and Taiwan

—100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60 Hz in western Japan

—230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East

Also be sure that your monitor and attached devices are electrically rated to oper- ate with the power available in your location.

•Use only approved power cable(s). If you have not been provided with a power cable for your server, storage system, or appliance, or for any AC-powered option intended for your system, purchase a power cable that is approved for use in your country. The power cable must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the product’s electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating of the cable should be greater than the ratings marked on the product.

•To help prevent electric shock, plug the system/components and peripheral power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets. These cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable. If you must use an extension cable, use a three-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.

•Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the extension cable or power strip ampere ratings limit.

660F. 224F specifications

The Dell EMC PowerVault 660F and 224F are part of Dell's robust storage solutions aimed at ensuring high performance, reliability, and efficiency in data management. These products are designed to cater to the needs of businesses that require scalable storage options while also optimizing their IT infrastructure.

The Dell PowerVault 660F is a flash storage array that focuses on delivering high-speed data access with low latency. It is equipped with various enterprise-grade features tailored for environments demanding superior performance. The 660F supports NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) technology, ensuring faster data transfer rates by connecting directly to the CPU, thereby minimizing bottlenecks commonly associated with traditional storage systems. This capability allows organizations to enhance workloads related to databases, analytics, and virtual desktop infrastructures (VDI).

On the other hand, the PowerVault 224F provides a robust storage solution utilizing traditional spinning disk technologies, ideal for businesses focused on consolidating and managing bulk data. The 224F offers a larger capacity at a lower cost per gigabyte compared to flash solutions, making it suitable for applications such as backup, archiving, and general file storage. The device supports SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) drives which provide high reliability and performance in enterprise settings.

Both the 660F and 224F models are designed with high availability in mind. They come with advanced redundancy features including dual controllers, power supplies, and cooling systems, ensuring that operations remain uninterrupted even during hardware failures. Moreover, Dell incorporates intelligent management software into these systems, allowing for seamless monitoring, data protection, and workload optimization.

With regard to scalability, the PowerVault series enables organizations to grow their storage needs as their business expands seamlessly. The flexibility to add more drives or expand current storage pools allows for cost-effective management of resources.

Security is another critical aspect. Both the 660F and 224F feature built-in data protection measures, including encryption options and role-based access controls that help safeguard sensitive information from unauthorized access.

In conclusion, the Dell EMC PowerVault 660F and 224F offer innovative storage solutions that balance speed, capacity, and reliability. Whether for enterprise applications requiring high-performance flash storage or for organizations prioritizing economical data storage with traditional hard drives, these models present versatile options tailored to meet diverse business needs.
