The PRIMERGY BX620 S4 server blade offers several new forward-looking
technologies such as dual-core processors, FBD memory modules with
extended mirroring, modular hard disk controller configuration and 2.5-inch SAS
or SATA hard disks.
The new modular hard disk controller concept with four storage module variants
allows you to create different configurations with SAS and SATA hard disks for
different scenarios. The configuration options range from the low-cost-platform
with SATA hard disks up to the high-end platform with SAS hard disks and an
SAS storage module with RAID 5 and cache/iTBBU.
Six onboard Ethernet channels with iSCSI support are available as communica-
tions interfaces; optionally, two Fibre Channel (FC) channels or two additional
Ethernet channels are available.
