The StorageScaler 8460 is an ultra-high-density disk drive enclosure that can significantly reduce TCO while providing unparalleled performance and scalability.
DataDirect Networks (DDN) has launched the fourth-generation high-density drive enclosure that can handle up to 84 drives, reducing data center sprawl by up to 40% and giving customers the ability to store up to 5.04 PBs in a single rack.
Note: *Ship freight on a pallet.
