Product Description
IBM 4662-92G FlashSystem 5200 High Density Expansion Enclosure
The IBM 4662-92G is the high-density Large Form Factor (LFF) expansion enclosure for the IBM FlashSystem 5200.
Product Description
The IBM 4662-92G FlashSystem 5200 High Density Expansion Enclosure is a 5U SAS expansion enclosure that supports up to 92 drives. It is designed to expand the capacity of FlashSystem 5200 control enclosures (models 4662-6H2 and UH6). The enclosure uses a 12 Gb SAS interface and supports a mix of 3.5-inch HDDs, Nearline HDDs, and SAS SSDs (including 2.5-inch drives in carriers). It enables cost-effective capacity scaling for tiered storage environments while maintaining high availability.
