IBM XSERIES 240
High Availability File Server
1. Six HDDs are used for RAID 5 protection. One HDD is identified as a hot-spare. Effective capacity is four HDDs or 36.4GB.
This tower model is configured to meet the need of server consolidation. Many businesses are trying to get their arms around the dispersed departmental servers
that have grown up around the enterprise. By moving multiple servers onto one platform there is only one system to manage both hardware and software. There is
potentially less expense for service, software licenses, etc., and there is less concern about single points of failure because the xSeries240 is designed for high
availability. This configuration includes RAID-protected internal storage, a third power supply which provides fully redundant power, a UPS to help protect the system
against a momentary electricity loss, and an internal tape drive that backs up as much as 40GB per tape in addition to all the standard features of the xSeries 240.
