SATA, SAS, and SSD Expansion for H-class Systems
The SM120 provides reliable and versatile storage expansion for Nimbus H-class storage systems. Engineered for high-availability, the SM120 offers end-to-end redundancy, including hot-swap power supplies, IO modules, and fans. With 80% fewer components and 70% lower power consumption than clustered storage systems, the SM120 reduces datacenter operating costs and maximizes drive life by substantially reducing heat and vibration within the enclosure. With FlexScale technology, each drive bay supports SATA, SAS, or SSD drives, enabling organizations to mix storage tiers even within the same enclosure. Unlike clustered arrays, the SM120 uses SAS, a low-latency high-bandwidth interface, to connect to H-class systems. This approach provides 4x greater performance and 85% lower latency than clustered arrays while reducing cooling needs, cabling requirements, and cost per TB as capacity is added.
