The HP StorageWorks Tape Array 5300 is a 3U rack enclosure that can hold two full-height array modules, four half-height modules, or one full-height and two half-height modules. It features offline hot-swap array modules allowing drive replacement without server downtime. An optional upgrade kit provides a redundant hot-swap fan and power supply for increased system availability. The array can be configured with up to four independent SCSI buses connected to different servers or drives can be daisy-chained. The variety and interchangeability of array modules make it a flexible solution for rack servers, especially in high-availability environments.
