  • Page 7: Primergy S40-Df Capacity Extension

    PRIMERGY S40-DF capacity extension The PRIMERGY S40-DF is the active component in the PRIMERGY S40 family of storage subsystems. The integrated disk array controller allows you to extend storage capacity using additional externally-connected passive PRIMERGY S40-ES storage devices. Two of these so-called “daisy-chain” configurations, i.e., with one or three PRIMERGY S40-ES units, are supported (see also the...
