Accessories

The A24F-G2224 subsystem comes with two (2) 2Gb per second (Gbps) Fibre channels 
interfaced through eight (8) SFP ports on two (2) independent I/O modules with embedded
bypass.  The subsystem's 4U-profile, rack-mountable chassis houses RAID controller 
featuring complete RAID protection and data integrity functionality.  All major components 
are hot-replaceable, including its Li-ION battery, host I/O modules, and the RAID-protected 
disk drives.   

The subsystem provides high-density array capacity with twenty-four (24) drive bays for 
SATA-II disk drives, facilitates large I/O transfer over its dual PCI-X bus architecture, and 
transmits block I/Os over flexible caching and the dedicated RAID 6 engine.  The A24F 
combines the capabilities and block-level performance of RAID storage with reliable Fibre 
Channel connectivity.
