70 LFF Universal SAS or SATA drives in 5U
Two pull-out drive drawers support hot plug large form factor dual-ported SAS or SATA drives in
just 5U of rack space
Each pull-out drive drawer is supported by a redundant set of hot plug power supplies and
redundant hot plug fans.
Straight forward SAS architecture provides zoned direct attach storage for BladeSystem servers; just
a Smart Array P700m controller in the blade server, a dual or single 3Gb SAS BL switches in the
chassis connected to an MDS600.

MDS600 drive bays are assigned or 'zoned' to individual blade bays using SAS 2.0 zoning
capabilities. Use the Virtual SAS Manager (VSM) in the 3Gb SAS BL switch to dynamically assign
up to 100 drives to specific BladeSystem servers, without complex configuration or re-cabling.
Drives zoned to each server appear as local storage to that server. This allows complete flexibility
to reconfigure quickly and easily without moving cables
With zoned direct attached storage capabilities; server administrators can build local storage on
the fly according to their configuration requirements.
Quickly deploy and expand capacity by configuring additional drive bays to a P700m Smart Array
Controller without moving a single cable.

To enhance performance even further, the Smart Array P711m controller installed in the blade
server provides 1 GB Flash -backed write cache (FBWC).
Supports higher performance between the 6G SAS Switch and MDS600 by attaching 2 SAS cables
from any quad of 6G SAS Switch ports to the 2 ports on the MDS600 IO module to create an 8x
wide SAS port.
High Performance Smart Array P212 256MB BBWC, P411 256MB\512MB BBWC, and P812
1GB BBWC available for ProLiant DL, ML, and SL servers.

Directly connect the Smart Array P212, P411, or P812 Controller to SAS Connector 1 on the
MDS600 Primary IO module(s) using a 2m SAS cables (8x wide SAS is not supported).
Connect one or two ProLiant servers to the MDS600 drawers using one or two Smart Array P212,
P411, and\or P812 controllers. NOTE: Maximum configuration with the P812 and MDS600 is 2
Drawers and 70 drives
No Zoning. The Smart Array controller sees all 35 drive bays in the MDS600 drive drawer.
The Smart Array P812 with firmware 3.50 or greater supports MDS600 with firmware 2.66 or
greater. P812 firmware 3.50 or greater has the ability to update the MDS600 firmware with a
minimum version of 2.60 to the latest version.
P212, P411, and P812 only supports single domain with the MDS600.
MDS600 does not support cascading SAS IO modules.

Familiar Smart Array technology of the Smart Array Controllers enables support for RAID levels 0,
1, 1+0, 5, RAID 6, RAID 50 (requires P711m) & RAID 60 (requires 711m ).
RAID 50: Protects against failure of one drive (and failure of particular multiple drives).
RAID 50 is a nested RAID method that uses RAID 0 striping across RAID 5 arrays. RAID 50
tolerates one drive failure in each spanned array without loss of data. RAID 50 requires less
rebuild time than single RAID 5 arrays RAID 50 requires a minimum of six drives. Requires
P711m.
RAID 60: Allows administrators to split the RAID 6 storage across multiple external boxes.
RAID 60 requires a minimum of eight drives. RAID 60 is a nested RAID method that uses
