Dell launches PowerVault MD1120
Dell has announced the PowerVault MD1120, a storage expansion enclosure designed with small form factor 2,5-inch disk drives.
The Dell PowerVault MD1120 is said to afford its customers higher performance through faster access to stored data, improved power efficiency through reduced power consumption and higher data centre density through a compact package.
It features 24 small form factor drives that are designed to occupy 70% less space and require up to 50% less power than models featuring 3,5-inch drives. Equipped with high-efficiency power supplies and the power-efficient 2,5-inch disk drives, the PowerVault MD1120 can reduce overall data centre power consumption, Dell says.
It also shares a common disk drive with select Dell servers – aiming for simpler management and reduced cost of stocking spare parts.
