HP (Hewlett-Packard) BC745A Computer Drive User Manual


 
Node Pair enclosure and the M6710 drive enclosure.
SFF drives must be loaded in pairs of identical drives, beginning with the
leftmost slot, slot 0, and filling to the right, leaving no empty slots
between drives.
Large Form Factor (LFF)-specific configuration practices
LFF drives may be loaded into the M6720 drive enclosure.
LFF drives must be loaded in pairs of identical drives starting at the
bottom of a column, leaving no empty slots between drives in the column.
Columns of drives in the M6720 enclosure must be of the same type (SSD
or NL) and, for HDDs, the same rotational speed. Drives of different types
may not be mixed in a single column. It is permitted to have empty
columns between columns containing drives. Different columns do not
have to contain the same number of drives.
An all LFF drive configuration is permitted, leaving the Storage Base
Enclosure empty.
SSD specific configuration practices
SSD-only configurations are permitted.
Maximum of 120 SSDs per node pair.
The SFF and LFF SSDs allow the user to create SSD volumes that stripe
across SFF and LFF enclosures.
*
8 drives support RAID 1 and RAID 5. For RAID 6 choose 12 drives.

Notes:
All drives within a 3PAR StoreServ encrypted array must be self-encrypted
devices. There cannot be a mixture of encrypted drives and non-encrypted drives
within the same array.
Self-encrypted drives are only supported on new 3PAR StoreServ 7000 Storage
systems. Encryption is not supported on existing 3PAR systems that are already
deployed in customer use.
* FIPS 140-2 Validated Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs) have been certified by the
U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Canadian
Communications Security Establishment (CSE) as meeting the Level 2 security
requirements for cryptographic modules as defined in the Federal Information
Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 Publication *
