high reliability, availability, flexibility, and manageability.
Supported configurations include a controller enclosure with or without attached
drive enclosures. A controller enclosure can contain two controllers that interact and
provide failover capability for the data path. The controller enclosure can use SATA
or SAS disk drive modules. Enclosures can be installed in standard 19-inch EIA
rack cabinets.
