Features

The major features of the BA370 rack mountable enclosure are as follows:

Holds up to twenty-four 3½-inch disk drive SBBs per BA370
Redundant power distribution to eliminate single points of failure
Redundant ac power entry controllers
Contains six, single-ended, Ultra Wide SBB backplane SCSI buses
Minimizes SCSI bus cables
A StorageWorks HSG80 or HSZ80 RAID array controller (can hold single or dual redundant array controllers)
All major components, except the single ended I/O modules,PVA module and EMU, can be replaced using the hot-swap method which reduces down time
Fault monitoring and reporting capability for incorrect voltages, shelf blower failure, power supply failure, and excessive operating temperature
The BA370 may be used as a master or an expansion unit
One or two expansion enclosures can be connected to a master enclosure which provides SBB slots for up to 72 disk drives
The 24-SBB RAID Array 8000 storage subsystem and the ESA12000 storage subsystem are Class A FCC certified

Note:
The master unit contains the array controller(s) and cache module(s). Expansion units contain additional storage devices on the same SCSI buses.
