RAID 6 sets, each comprised of 16 disk drives. These disks are used for AdvancedDisk data storage purposes. Depending on the storage configuration you purchase, the Access 3340 Appliance storage system supports up to 2.8PB of usable data storage space.
About Veritas Access 3340 Appliance storage shelves Available appliance storage options The Veritas Access 3340 Appliance compute nodes do not contain internal disk space on which to store data. Instead, the 3340 Appliance system uses one required Veritas 5U84 Primary Storage Shelf and up to three optional 5U84 Expansion Storage Shelves as the main data storage devices.
3340 Appliance systems that use up to four storage shelves for increased storage capacity can be installed in a single hardware rack. See the Veritas Access 3340 Appliance Hardware Installation Guide for more information. To determine the hardware configuration for the storage capacities that your environment requires, contact your Veritas sales representative, or your Veritas Partner representative.
