Storage Blades Two disks (up to 2TB per blade) 2xGb/s ethernet (failover mode) 11 per shelf (must be managed by DB)
Data is striped across all Storage Blades (RAID5 or RAID1) One or more Storage Blades worth of space reserved for failures System monitoring for pre-emptive actions (Blade Drain) Two or more Director Blades can provide failover for each other
