VSP N800 model
The VSP N800 is a highly reliable storage system that offers high storage capacity with full
redundancy to better protect data and manage storage operations.
The storage system consists of a 4U enclosure that includes two controllers and two NAS
modules. Drives are supported using drive trays connected to the controllers. The CBLH can
be expanded by mounting a host port expansion chassis.
The storage system supports 512 GB of high-speed cache memory. The DIMMs are arranged
as 256 GB per controller. Storage system interfaces are listed in the following table. The
maximum number of ports can be increased by connecting a host port expansion chassis.
