Overview
Do you need a direct attached or shared storage solution within your BladeSystem enclosure?
The D2200sb Storage Blade delivers direct attached storage for c-Class servers, with support for
up to twelve SFF SAS hard disk drives or SAS/SATA SSDs or SATA Midline hard drives. The
enclosure backplane provides a PCI Express connection to the adjacent c-Class server blade and
enables high performance storage access without any additional cables. The D2200sb features
the onboard Smart Array P410i controller with 1 GB flashbacked write cache, for increased
performance and data protection.
Use the HP StoreVirtual VSA to turn the D2200sb into an iSCSI SAN for use by all severs in the
enclosure and any server on the network. VSA includes remote replication capabilities, thinprovisioning, and snapshot.
Combine the D2200sb with the HP X1800sb Network Storage Blade to enable file serving iSCSI
shared storage inside the BladeSystem enclosure.
