240 disks in a rack?? http://www.advancedhpc.com/data_storage/raid_storage/dell/PV_md3260.html http://www.advancedhpc.com/data_storage/raid_storage/dell/PV... 60 disks per 4u
Thats 600 in a 42u rack
- dom0 10y agoSuperMicro has a 90 disk top-loading 4U storage server. It's deeper, of course. However, they probably thought about standard 2U servers with no second disk row, so 12 disks per 2U = 252 disks / rack.
- KaiserPro 10y agoAh, yeah, forgot about those. so many disks. edit: https://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/4u/946/SC946ED-R2KJBOD https://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/4u/946/SC946ED-R... if you want to look and drool.
- dom0 10y agoI think the Sun Thumper kinda invented the concept - many successful copies since :)
- cjg_ 10y agoAWS was doing 1100 disk in their previous generation storage 42u rack (used 8TB disks for 8.8PB). Source: James Hamiltons talk at reinvent 2016 (http://mvdirona.com/jrh/talksandpapers/ReInvent2016_James%20Hamilton.pdf http://mvdirona.com/jrh/talksandpapers/ReInvent2016_James%20... p25)
