The HP SB40c storage blade, part number AP762AR, is a compact but powerful hard drive array designed to provide enhanced storage capabilities for HP BladeSystem enclosures. This unit slots directly into compatible c-class enclosures, allowing for seamless integration with existing blade servers. It supports up to six hot-pluggable Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) or Serial ATA (SATA) hard drives, offering flexibility for those who need quality storage in a small form factor. Users can configure the SB40c to provide either performance-driven or capacity-focused storage depending on their needs, thanks to its compatibility with both SAS and SATA drives.
Inside the HP SB40c storage blade, users will find a versatile RAID controller that supports a variety of RAID levels, including RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5. This allows for optimising data redundancy or performance, depending on the configuration. Additionally, the unit provides scalability options, letting users expand their storage capacity without requiring additional hardware or external devices. It's ideal for virtualisation environments or applications requiring significant data storage.
One notable feature is its built-in management interface, which allows for efficient monitoring and control of the hard drives within the array. This simplifies maintenance and improves the overall reliability of the storage system. Furthermore, the SB40c offers high levels of power efficiency, making it a suitable option for data centres focused on optimising their energy usage.
