Hardware features
Contained in a 7 to 8U architecture, the Block and File VNX5300 platform weighs
approximately 206.7 lb (93.76 kg) to 229.7 lb (104.19 kg) fully loaded

depending on
the type of disk drives used in the DPE. With the DME having the deepest dimension
within the cabinet, the Block and File VNX5300 measures 12.25 to 14 inches (7 to 8U)
high x 18.92 inches wide x 24.25 inches deep (31.11 cm to 35.56 cm x 48.05 cm x 61.59
cm). Between the front and rear of the enclosure, a midplane distributes power and
signals to all the enclosure components. The CPU modules and the power supply
modules plug directly into the midplane connections.
Note:
The previously mentioned dimensions are approximate and do not include the cabinet
enclosure.
