Easy Accessibility and Management
The HP AP838B Storage Enclosure is a rack-mountable storage solution that provides easy accessibility and management for up to 12 3.5″ hard disk drives. The enclosure has a compact and durable design, making it suitable for both enterprise and small-to-medium businesses.
One of the key features of the AP838B is its ease of accessibility. The enclosure has a modular design that allows for quick and simple installation and removal of hard disk drives. This helps to reduce downtime and increase productivity, as hard drives can be replaced or upgraded without having to disassemble the entire enclosure.
Another feature of the AP838B is its management capabilities. The enclosure has an integrated management controller that allows administrators to monitor the health of the hard drives and the enclosure itself. This can help to proactively identify and resolve any potential issues before they become a major problem.
In addition to this, the AP838B also supports various data protection features such as hot-swappable drives, redundant power supplies, and backup batteries to ensure that your data is protected in the event of a failure.
Maximum Storage Capacity
The AP838B HP Storage Enclosure is a rack mountable device that has a total of 12 bays, all of which are 3.5″ bays. This means that the maximum storage capacity of the AP838B HP Storage Enclosure is dependent on the size of the hard drives installed in the bays.
If each bay is filled with a 3.5″ hard drive of the largest capacity currently available (14 TB), then the total maximum storage capacity of the AP838B HP Storage Enclosure would be 168 TB (14 TB x 12 bays).
However, it is important to note that the actual storage capacity may be limited by the operating system or other software components that are installed on the system, as well as by other hardware limitations such as the size of the cache and the number of available connections.
