Rugged NVMe 2U Server/Storage All-in-One W/2 Removable Canisters by Cheetah RAID Storage

Rugged NVMe 2U server/storage all-in-one W/2 removable canisters with 10 drives per canister, for a total capacity of 320TB, will appear soon from Cheetah RAID Storage.

Furthermore new 30TB will be available soon.

Part number: TBD

Features:

• Optional OCP 2.0 Mezzanine IO slot
• Maximized exhaust-vent area design for optimized cooling
  • Designed to support standard Grantley/Broadwell, Purley/Skylake and AMD Naples platforms
  • Purpose-built for NVMe-oF usage model with optimized IO bandwidth and latency
  • Balanced IO design:
    • Each CPU manages one PEX9781 or PEX9797 PCIe switch
    • Each PCIe switch manages 48x lanes downstream for 12xU.2 or 6xPCIe X8 AIC modules plus 1 or 2 PCIe X16 network adapter slots
    • Maximum throughput with each CPU capable of sustaining over 200Gb/s and 4 million IO/s
  • RDMA/RoCE/iWARP NIC adapters are linked to NVMe SSDs via PCIe switch
  • System is designed to minimize crossing over the QPI/UPI links to avoid additional interrupts
  • High IO/s bandwidth with in 2U platform
  • Over 500Gb/ps sustained IO/s performance for entire system
  • Based on COTS components to avoid vendor lock-ins
  • Modular design and future-proof, can migrate to new gen platforms with few efforts
  • Maximized exhaust vents plus high-pressure cooling fans result in efficiency cooling
  • Designed for OEMs with many options for customizations
• Supports U.2 NVMe devices
  • 2U form factor with 27″ depth, designed to fit 900mm racks
  • 2x canisters supporting 10xNVMe U.2 SSD drives each
  • 2 or 4x PCIe X16 expansion slots for up to 448 Gb/s (4x112Gb EDR IB) of network IO/s bandwidth
  • Symmetrically-balanced IO/s between 2 CPUs for performance with each CPU managing one PCIe switch and half the expansion slots and NVMe devices downstream
  • NVMe devices and network adapters are linked directly over PCIe switch for minimized latency
  • Optional support for GPGPU cards for VDI applications
  • 2x Avago/PLX PEX9781 or 97 PCIe fan-out switches supporting DPC and hot-swap
  • Additional PCIe Gen3 X16 rear OCP 2.0 IO module for 40/100Gb/s options for secondary network storage connectivity
  • Supports up to 2 E5-2699v4 Xeon or Purley/Skylake processors
  • 2xhot-swap 2.5″-7mm system disks (boot drives)
  • 1,200~1,600W(230VAC) CRPS redundant power supply options
  • 4x80x38mm high-pressure cooling fans
  • Optional lockable front bezel to protect from unauthorized removal of sensitive data
  • Optional MCU module for PCIe switch boards for additional OEM-manageable functions

About Cheetah RAID Storage
