Dell EMC PowerEdge MX5016s storage sled
The PowerEdge MX5016s storage sled delivers scale-out, shared storage within the PowerEdge MX architecture. The PowerEdge
MX5016s sled provides customizable 12 GB/s direct-attached SAS storage with up to 16 SAS hard drives or SSDs. Both the PowerEdge
MX740c and the PowerEdge MX840c compute sleds can share drives with the PowerEdge MX5016s sled using the PowerEdge MX5000s
SAS module. Internal server drives may be combined with up to seven PowerEdge MX5016s sleds in one chassis for extensive scalability.
The PowerEdge MX7000 chassis supports up to seven PowerEdge MX5016s storage sleds.
NOTE:
SATA and NVMe devices are not supported in the PowerEdge MX5016s storage sled (it is SAS only). All three drive types
are supported as local drives in the PowerEdge MX740c and PowerEdge MX840c compute sleds.
