Brand: HPE · SKU: D3940 · MPN: D3940 · Category: Components
The HPE Synergy D3940 Storage Module is a direct attached storage module designed for use in HPE 12000 Synergy frames, featuring 40 Small Form Factor (SFF) drive bays. It provides composable storage for up to 10 compute modules in a single frame via the HPE Synergy 12Gb SAS Connection Module. Synergy storage is optimized for software-defined storage solutions like HPE StoreVirtual VSA, VMware VSAN, Microsoft Storage Spaces, and Hadoop. It supports a mix of 12G SAS or 6G SATA HDDs and SSDs in Smart Carriers, though logical grouping must be across identical drive types. It offers a non-blocking 12 Gb SAS fabric end-to-end, enabling high bandwidth and performance, especially for solid-state drives. The module occupies two half-height bays in the frame, and up to five can be used in one frame for a potential density of up to 200 SFF drives. Redundancy can be achieved by adding a second I/O adapter and connection module.
