VMAX3 Family 100K, 200K, 400K arrays
VMAX3 arrays range in size from single up to two (100K), four (200K) or eight engine
systems (400K). Engines (consisting of two controllers) and high-capacity disk
enclosures (for both 2.5" and 3.5" drives) are consolidated in the same system bay,
providing a dramatic increase in floor tile density.
