The HP LeftHand P4500 Multi-Site SAN Expansion Node (Part Number: AT021AR#0D1) is a robust and versatile hard drive array designed to enhance the storage capacity of your network. This expansion node is part of the LeftHand P4500 family, ideal for increasing the resources of your multi-site SAN (Storage Area Network) deployments. The system offers additional storage capacity, making it an essential component for organisations looking to scale up while maintaining data availability and resilience across different geographical locations.
The P4500 Multi-Site SAN Expansion Node supports up to 12 hot-swappable hard drives, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime. You can replace or upgrade drives while the system remains operational, offering continuous availability for critical applications. The architecture provides redundancy with built-in data protection technologies such as RAID. This helps ensure that data remains secure even in the event of hardware failure, making it an important tool for high-availability environments.
Designed for highly efficient and reliable data storage, the expansion node integrates well with existing SAN configurations, allowing for simple, centralised management of storage resources. It can be combined with other LeftHand systems to provide distributed data storage that is both flexible and scalable. Additionally, it uses iSCSI-based storage, which is a cost-effective protocol leveraging existing network infrastructure to deliver consistent performance for virtualised environments or business-critical applications.
The HP LeftHand P4500 Multi-Site SAN Expansion Node is built to be deployed in conjunction with other servers within a single network, ensuring all your storage needs are met with maximum efficiency. Its compatibility with backup and disaster recovery solutions ensures that data remains protected both locally and at remote locations.
