Green Storage Features 36 to 45 Hot-swap HDDs in 4U
The Super SBB provides hot-swappable canisters for all active components. Each of the two Serverboard canisters contain support for Dual-Processors (5500/5600 series CPUs) and 6Gbps SAS (SAS2). With the dual 10GbE connection between the Serverboards via the midplane, if one serverboard fails, the other serverboard is able to take over control and access the HDD's (both controllers can also work as Active-active mode), keeping the system up and running.
Optimized for enterprise-level high-capacity storage applications, Supermicro's SC847 Chassis features 36x (24 front + 12 rear) hot-swap 3.5" SAS/SATA hard drive bays as server chassis or 45x (24 front + 21 rear) hot-swap 3.5" SAS/SATA hard drive bays as JBOD chassis in a 4U space. Equipped with redundant high-efficiency 1400W or 920W (Gold / Platinum Level) power supplies with PMBus functionality and I2C for enhanced power management, and 5 hot-plug redundant cooling fans, the SC847 is a reliable and hassle-free maintenance storage system.
