HPC Storage Solution

Westmere-Based Building Blocks Starting at $0.50 per GB

HPC Storage Solution
 

RAID Incorporated’s new HPC Storage Solution is designed for all major parallel file system-based applications that demand the highest level of performance at an affordable cost point per GB.

Each 4U storage node can be connected into a QDR InfiniBand, 10Gb Ethernet, or an 8Gb FC switch. Up to (10) 4U, 36-bay storage nodes can be incorporated into a 42U rack.

The 4U Storage Building Block Node

The 4U Storage Building Block Node utilizes dual Tylersburg chipsets to enable twice the bandwidth for superior I/O performance. The 4U chassis has 36 hot-swappable drive bays that are easily accessable using a 6Gb/s backplane. This enables a variety of drive options such as SSD, SAS, or SATA in 3.5” or 2.5” sizes. With full cooling redundancy and a high-efficiency redundant power supply, this solution is optimized for the next generation Intel® Xeon® series.

The motherboard based on Intel’s Nehalem 5520 (Tylersburg) chipset support Intel’s Xeon® 5600-series processors in the LGA 1366 socket today. With features that include support for (72) PCI-Express 2.0 lanes, up to 96GB of DDR3 memory, and IMPI 2.0 support, these solutions deliver the highest performance.
