HP StorageWorks 400
All-in-One Storage
System (AiO400)
This entry-level rackable solution provides shared storage expansion for
application servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients
(NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO400 is an
excellent solution for customers needing less than 1TB total raw capacity
without the performance requirements of SAS.
Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, the AiO400 can be
used for smaller Storage Groups with less than 100 mailboxes when
using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines. Out of the box
implementations should only use the AiO400 for very few users or
archival Storage Groups. While it is certified for VMWare ESX iSCSI
connectivity, the AiO400 is not recommended in VMFS environments
due highly random read/write performance characteristics of VMFS.
HP StorageWorks 600
All-in-One Storage
System (AiO600)
This tower/rack solution provides shared storage expansion for application
servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and
comprehensive data protection features. The AiO600 is an excellent solution
for customers looking for increased capacity, scalability, and hardware
redundancy. The AiO600 is available in both SATA and Serial Attached
SCSI (SAS) configurations.
Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO600 SATA
configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500
mailboxes while AiO600 SAS configurations support up to 1,000
mailboxes when using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines.
Out of the box implementations for the AiO600 will support approx
25% of these numbers. The AiO600 is certified with VMWare ESX for
iSCSI connectivity; due to the highly random read/write performance
characteristics of VMFS we recommend SAS HDDs and the AiO1200
SAS as the best performance option for use with VMWare ESX and
VMFS.
HP StorageWorks 1200
All-in-One Storage
System (AiO1200)
This high capacity all-in-one solution provides shared storage expansion for
application servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients
(NAS), and comprehensive data protection features. The AiO1200 is an
excellent solution for customers looking for increased performance and
capacity from 12 internal drives and a high performance RAID controller.
The AiO1200 is available in both SATA and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)
configurations.
Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO1200 SATA
configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500
mailboxes while AiO1200 SAS configurations support up to 1,500
mailboxes when using the Exchange ESRP implementation guidelines.
Out of the box implementations for the AiO1200 will support approx
25% of these numbers. The AiO1200 is certified with VMWare ESX
for iSCSI connectivity; due to the highly random read/write
performance characteristics of VMFS we recommend SAS HDDs for
use with VMWare ESX and VMFS.

One SB600c Storage
Blade (AiO SB600c)
This half-height all-in-one storage blade solution was designed for HP c-class
BladeSystem environments and provides shared storage expansion for blade
servers (iSCSI SAN), enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS), and
comprehensive data protection features. The AiO SB600c is an excellent
solution for customers looking at c-3000 or c-7000 BladeSystem
deployments. The AiO SB600c is available a SAS configuration.
Sizing Guidelines: For Exchange environments, AiO SB600c SAS
configurations are appropriate for storage groups with less than 500
mailboxes. The AiO SB600c is certified with VMWare ESX for iSCSI
connectivity.
