Storage Shelf overview
The optional Veritas S Series 2U12 65.5TiB/72TB Storage Shelf is a 2U12 drive enclosure that contains twelve 8TB 7200 rpm SAS hard disk drives. Available storage capacity of the storage shelf is 65 TiB. Each disk drive can be accessed from the storage shelf's front panel. The PCIe RAID controller is used to configure the disk drives into a RAID 6 configuration. One of the disk drives is reserved as a global hot spare and can be used in case of any drive failure.
The S Series Storage Shelf also contains two Storage Bay Bridge 2.1 compliant (SBB) Input/Output (I/O) modules. Each I/O module has three mini-SAS HD ports, which are labeled A, B, and C. As such, each storage shelf contains a total of six mini-SAS HD I/O ports. However, only ports A and B of each I/O module are used to connect the storage shelf to the appliance or other storage shelves.
Each I/O module also includes one Ethernet port and a 3.5mm RS232 Interface-to-Enclosure Services Processor jack. The Ethernet port and the RS232 jack are only used during on-site debugging operations. They are not used during normal appliance operations.
Along with the I/O modules and the disk drives, the Storage Shelf also includes a front control panel. The control panel provides LED indications of the health of the storage shelf. It uses a dual seven segment display for enclosure identification and a switch that is used for storage shelf configuration purposes.
The Storage Shelf serial number appears on a plastic panel on the left side of Power Cooling Module 0 (PCM 0). The storage shelf serial number begins with the letters SH.

The Veritas D Series 2U12 65.5TiB/72TB Storage Shelf is a direct-attach storage enclosures designed to maximize your server storage capacity. Available storage capacity of the storage shelf is 65 TiB. It offers the flexibility of 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch hard drives (with specially designed carriers) in a 2U, 12-drive enclosure. The PCIe RAID controller is used to configure the disk drives into a RAID 6 configuration. One of the disk drives is reserved as a global hot spare and can be used in case of any drive failure.
The D Series Storage Shelf also contains two Storage Bay Bridge 2.1 compliant (SBB) Input/Output (I/O) modules. Each I/O module has four mini-SAS HD ports, which are labeled 1, 2, 3 and 4. As such, each storage shelf contains a total of six mini-SAS HD I/O ports. However, only ports 1 and 2 of each I/O module are used to connect the storage shelf to the appliance or other storage shelves.
The Storage Shelf service tag number is located on a black tab on the right side of the rear panel, between the bottom I/O module and the power supply. Pull out the tab to display the serial number. The service tag number/serial number is also located on the front panel right side ear. The service tag number/serial number is listed after the "ST:" notation.
