QuantaPlex T21SR-2U
The QuantaPlex T21SR-2U is the company’s new generation 2U two-node cluster-in-a-box server based on Intel Xeon processor E5 v3 product family. Two server nodes are clustered using a PCIe interconnection or 10Gb and share up to 24 disk drives in a 2U chassis. Interconnection between the server nodes use the mid-plane, allowing the other server board to take control if one server board fails while gaining full access to HDD and front end host I/O to keep the system online and running. In addition, the QuantaPlex T21SR-2U uses a backup battery unit (BBU) as data vaulting solution, which provides up to 120 seconds of power for each node after a power failure.
