About this product
This EMC VNX6GSDAE25 disk enclosure is designed for enterprise storage expansion, accommodating 25 hot-swap 1TB SAS drives. It supports SAS and SATA interfaces, specifically SAS 2, making it compatible with existing SAN and NAS disk arrays. The unit's design allows for integration into Dell and HP server environments, providing a substantial 25TB of raw storage capacity. Manufactured in the United States, it offers robust features for high-demand server applications.
Our take
If you're looking to significantly boost your server's storage capacity, this EMC array is a solid option. The ability to house 25 1TB SAS drives, totaling 25TB, is impressive for the price, especially with hot-swap functionality for easy maintenance. It's built for enterprise environments, supporting both SAS and SATA drives with a SAS 2 interface. While it comes without the drives pre-installed, giving you flexibility, remember this is a bare enclosure. You'll need to factor in the cost and effort of sourcing and installing all 25 drives. But for expanding a SAN or NAS, it's a very practical solution.
