storage capacity of the storage shelf is 65 TiB. Each disk drive can be accessed
from the storage shelf's front panel. The PCIe RAID controller is used to configure
the disk drives into a RAID 6 configuration. One of the disk drives is reserved as a
global hot spare and can be used in case of any drive failure.
The S Series Storage Shelf also contains two Storage Bay Bridge 2.1 compliant
(SBB) Input/Output (I/O) modules. Each I/O module has three mini-SAS HD ports,
which are labeled A, B, and C. As such, each storage shelf contains a total of six
mini-SAS HD I/O ports. However, only ports A and B of each I/O module are used
to connect the storage shelf to the appliance or other storage shelves.
Each I/O module also includes one Ethernet port and a 3.5mm RS232
Interface-to-Enclosure Services Processor jack. The Ethernet port and the RS232
jack are only used during on-site debugging operations. They are not used during
normal appliance operations.
Along with the I/O modules and the disk drives, the Storage Shelf also includes a
front control panel. The control panel provides LED indications of the health of the
storage shelf. It uses a dual seven segment display for enclosure identification and
a switch that is used for storage shelf configuration purposes.
The Storage Shelf serial number appears on a plastic panel on the left side of Power
Cooling Module 0 (PCM 0). The storage shelf serial number begins with the letters
SH.
