Equus Computer Systems announced it has launched a unique new 1.5U server with two drive drawers, each supporting eight 3.5-in. hot-swappable SAS/SATA hard drives, delivering up to 160TB of drive storage in a compact form factor. At data transfer rates of up to 12 gigabits per sec., the new 1.5U server has capacity and performance that make it ideal for those seeking to increase storage density while decreasing footprint and operational expenses. It is designed for those looking to optimize valuable data center rack space while improving efficiency. The availability of two drive drawers means drive failure will not bring the server down. Users can simply pull out the drive drawer and remove the failed drive while the rest of the drives in the drawer remain online.
