Given the massive explosion of data in data centers over the last decade, and the rapid adoption of technologies by users and
enterprises for utilizing this data, the storage landscape faces major challenges in areas of space, cabling, power consumption and
operations. The HP ProLiant SL4545 G7 server is a converged platform providing an efficient alternative to a traditional server with DAS
in environments with petabytes of storage supporting open source scale out storage applications and large email deployments. It is a
convergence of compute and storage that maximizes every cubic foot in the data center, providing configuration flexibility combined
with the built-in intelligence and automation of the HP ProLiant server.
The SL4545 G7 makes it simple and efficient to deploy large amounts of internal storage. It is the densest server storage available in the
HP ProLiant portfolio today and can store up to 180TB of data in a 4.3U chassis. The design offers flexibility via the use of SAS, SATA and
SATA SSD in the storage section, as well as a single PCIe slot allowing for an HP I/O accelerator, an external storage controller or
additional networking ports. It can support a total of 60 3.5" LFF hard drives in the storage section and two 2.5" SFF HDD in the server
node. For easy serviceability, all HDDs, power supplies and fans in the server are hot plug and the server node is easily removable from
the front of the chassis.
