| In addition, HP today announced its first dedicated storage blade, which provides customers with quick and efficient storage expansion to enable greater flexibility within IT infrastructures. The HP StorageWorks SB40c storage blade can add up to 876 gigabytes of direct attached storage capacity to each blade within an HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure and is another step in HP’s strategy to “blade everything” in the data center.
Based on industry-standard components, including small form factor Serial Attached SCSI drives, the SB40c ’s density and power efficiency accommodate the space and power constraints of data centers. In addition, the storage blade offers simplified and automated storage and server management via HP Systems Insight Manager and Integrated Lights-Out tools.
