D3 SAN storage NEC D3 Storage Superior Dependability The D3 storage arrays provide the best value in Fibre Channel • Self-healing reduces HDD failures by 30-50% and decreases the number of RAID rebuilds by fixing hard drives before they fail SAN storage through a superior combination of dependability, scalability, and efficiency at a great price. D-Series arrays are used in iSCSI and Fibre Channel SANs for primary storage, high capacity secondary storage, or both in a tiered storage strategy. D-Series arrays are well-suited for virtualized environments, cloud • Catches silent data corruption of both SAS and SATA drives that is not detected by other systems • Background disk & cache scrubbing prevents applications from receiving corrupt data storage, databases, data warehouses, disk-to-disk backup, and Wide Scalability other block-level storage applications. • Expand RAID groups non-disruptively adding HDDs one-by-one or many at a time to a maximum of 144 HDDs D3 at a Glance • Grow LUNs online Base Unit/Disk Enclosure (front) • Increase front-end bandwidth by growing to 12 ports Modular design — each module holds 12 HDDs • Scale to over 1,500 hard drives by converting an NEC D3 into an NEC D8 without moving data or disk drives • Dual-ported drives • SAS - SATA HDD intermix • Hot spare/swap HDDs Base Unit (rear) Upgrade Online Upgrade Online Dual power supplies A A A A D8-3020 2U B C D E B C D E Convert data-in-place Dual disk adapter modules D8-3010 D3 Disk Enclosure (rear) Dual power supplies A 2U D8-3040 A A B A B Dual disk adapter modules A Dual fans per power supply B Dual SAS back-end ports (24 Gbps wide-link) C Fibre Channel front-end connectivity E ECC cache memory (mirrored, battery-backed) D Redundant management ports High Efficiency • Power off RAID groups when not in use to save energy • Browser-based GUI allows remote management of up to 32 arrays in a ‘single pane of glass’ • Scale-up architecture saves you money as you grow • No FC switch required to connect up to 6 servers with dualpathing Specifications Hardware Model D3 Host Ports 4, 8, or 12 Fibre Channel ports at 4 Gbps Number of Controllers Dual controllers (active-active) Configuration 1 - 12 2U enclosures 12 disk drives per enclosure SAS – SATA intermix within an enclosure Cache Memory Supported RAID Level Maximum Capacity Disk Drives Capacity 4 GB (2 GB per controller) Battery Backup Time 24 hours Optional BBU Time 72 hours SAS 1, 10, TM (Triple Mirror), 3, 3DP (3 Double Parity), 5, 50, 6 SATA TM (Triple Mirror), 5, 6 SAS 86.4 TB SATA 288 TB SAS 300 GB, 450 GB, 600 GB rotating at 15,000 rpm SATA 1 TB, 2 TB rotating at 7,200 rpm Number of Disk Drives 3 – 144 (convert into a D8 to continue scaling up to 1,536 HDDs) Supported Operating Systems Microsoft® Windows Server 2003 & 2008 (x86, x64), Hyper-V, Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®, VMware®, HP-UX, SolarisTM, Citrix® XenServer ® Base Unit/Enclosure Dimensions 2U: 18.9” x 21.3” x 3.4” (480 x 540 x 86.5 mm) Weight Disk Array Controller 68.3 lbs.
