Also called "Terabytes in a Cabinet", the SP24000 is a space-saving integrated RAID storage solution that uses 36 GB disk drives to pack 3.4 TB of UltraSCSI disk capacity into a footprint of only seven square feet.

The need for storage is growing dramatically, especially for Service Providers (ASPs, ISPs, and SSPs) where disk capacity and physical floor space are always at a premium. The Compaq StorageWorks Service Provider 24000 (SP24000), also called "Terabytes in a Cabinet," is a perfect solution. This space-saving integrated RAID storage solution uses 36 GB disk drives to pack 3.4 TB of UltraSCSI disk capacity into a footprint of only seven square feet.

The MA8000/EMA12000 transitions the RA8000/ESA12000 storage solutions to the new StorageWorks packaging. MA8000/EMA12000 supports the same features as the existing RA8000/ESA12000 including heterogeneous server and operating system platforms; StorageWorks HSG80 Fibre Channel Controllers; SANworks data and storage management software and maximum single system configuration of up to 72 drives.The maximum system configuration requires only one cabinet due to the new modular controller (Model 2200) and drive enclosures (Models 4200 and 4300).

The Modular Array 6000 (MA6000) is the new low-priced member of the MA8000 and EMA12000 product family. As a family member, it is easy and inexpensive for a customer to start small and grow the system to full Enterprise capabilities as needs grow. MA6000 is a high-powered, multi-vendor system for use with Windows 2000, Tru64 UNIX, OpenVMS, NetWare, and other UNIX operating systems from HP, IBM, SGI and Sun. It is ideal for customers who need:
