Dell EMC Unity 400/400F: Hybrid Flash Unified Storage Array for China Suppliers and Factory Solutions
Product Description
Dell EMC Unity 400 (Hybrid Flash)
Dell EMC Unity 400 is a hybrid flash unified storage array, specifically designed for mid-range workloads and suitable for branch offices or resource-limited environments.
It adopts a 2U rack-mounted architecture, providing 25 2.5-inch SAS/flash hard disk bays, with a maximum supported capacity of 4 PB.
The hardware configuration includes dual Intel Xeon E5-2630 processors and 96 GB of memory, supports a 12 Gb SAS interface, and integrates unified management software (Unisphere) with snapshot, compression, and copy functions.
Dell EMC Unity 400F (All-Flash)
Unity 400F is an all-flash version, featuring an all-flash design that offers higher performance and lower latency, making it suitable for high-performance computing or database applications.
It inherits the hardware architecture of the hybrid version but uses flash drives instead of SAS hard drives, optimizing data services such as in-line compression and intelligent wear balancing.
