Supermicro Unveils New Generation Top-Loading Storage Systems for High-Capacity Cloud-Scale Deployments
SAN JOSE, Calif., July 27, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

  -- Customers Can Leverage Multiple Expansion Options with Flexible 60-bay 
     and 90-bay Systems Available in Single-Node, Dual-Node, SBB, or 
     JBOD Configurations

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI), a global leader in enterprise computing, 
storage, networking solutions, and green computing technology, announced an 
extension of its market-proven ultra-dense storage solutions with new 60-bay 
and 90-bay solutions. These best-in-class high-capacity storage and expansion 
systems are optimized for cloud-scale storage implementations as well as HPC 
storage applications.

This new top-loading architecture delivers the improved flexibility, 
modularity, and serviceability that customers need.  Both 60-bay and 90-bay 
systems are available in single-node and dual-node configurations, where the 
drives evenly split between each node. Also, the drives can be in a storage 
bridge bay (SBB) configuration for high availability, in which both nodes have 
access to all the drives, and one node backs up the other in case of a failure. 
With a modular, tool-less design, all key onboard systems – hot-swap server 
nodes, expanders, fan modules, power supplies, and drives – are fully optimized 
for easy serviceability by a single technician.

"Anticipating changing market dynamics and high growth in software-defined, 
cloud-based storage, Supermicro can help data centers to rapidly modernize 
their equipment to leverage flexible architectures, tool-less design 
modularity, and simple expansion capabilities," said Charles Liang, president 
and CEO of Supermicro. "Our new high-capacity storage systems continue 
Supermicro's focus on resource-saving and deliver industry-leading capacity per 
watt for a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and lower total cost to the 
environment (TCE)."
 
Supermicro's new high-capacity top-loading systems are optimized for enterprise 
environments, and support scale-up and scale-out architectures. These 4U 
systems feature 60x or 90x hot-swap 2.5"/3.5" SAS3/SATA3 bays plus 2x onboard 
PCI-E M.2 slots and 2x internal slim SATA SSD slots. The single-node system 
also supports 2x rear hot-swap 2.5" bays for OS mirroring and optional 4x NVMe 
U.2 bays for fast caching. At maximum configuration, the system supports 1,440 
terabytes of cost-optimized storage. The single- and dual-node systems use 2nd 
Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors in a dual-socket configuration with 
16x DIMM slots per server node.
