4.8 IBM NeXtScale Storage Native Expansion Tray
The IBM NeXtScale Storage Native Expansion Tray is a half-wide 1U expansion
tray that attaches to the nx360 M4 to provide seven extra 3.5-inch simple-swap
SATA drives. The tray allows the configuration of storage-rich nx360 M4 compute
nodes. Using eight 4 TB drives, such a configuration offers 32 TB of internal
direct-attach storage.
