Supermicro is dedicated to bringing the energy saving advantages of 2.5" disk drives and high-efficiency power supply technology to customers through this new, complete line of optimized chassis solutions. Whether it is cost, performance, storage capacity, size or flexibility, Supermicro has created a series of chassis solutions that fit a wide variety of customer requirements.
These chassis solutions package between 8 and 24 hot-swappable 2.5" SAS/SATA hard disk drives in either 1U or 2U form factor chassis sizes. Each chassis also features a new advanced design high-efficiency (>85%+) power supply. The result is significant power savings from both the disk drives and the power supplies over older technologies. You do not have to be an advocate for combating global warming or environmental pollution to care about how much energy the systems in your data center consume. The simple profit-and-loss economics of running your business will tell you that when your servers use less energy, they will cost less to operate and will increase your company's profits.
- Saves Space
Because the 2.5-inch disk drive is smaller in every dimension than the prior generation 3.5-inch drive, the resulting volume is over 72% smaller- about a quarter the size of the larger drives.
- Reduces Power Consumption
At idle, the 2.5-inch form factor drive takes 65% less power than its larger 3.5-inch cousin and produces less heat. Over a very large number of drives housed in a modern data center the power savings becomes substantial.
- Improved Performance
Performance increases dramatically due to the smaller platter and consequently shorter seek times. The small size of the drives enables 2.5-inch drives to deliver 130 to 150 percent greater system performance in the same footprint.

Key Benefit: Reduced IT Costs
Many IT professionals have identifi ed storage consolidation as a core strategy to cut data center costs and optimize effi ciency. Such consolidation can reduce data center fl oor space requirements, as well as lower both ancillary infrastructure expenditures and storage management costs, all while signifi cantly boosting storage system utilization.
Small form factor 2.5-inch disk drives are spearheading a new class of high-I/O-density storage solutions, such as the Supermicro 2.5-inch HDD chassis series, that facilitate rapid and cost-effective storage consolidation. For enterprises seeking to maintain current capacity and I/O performance levels while reducing data center footprint, the next generation 2.5-inch disk drives integrated with Supermicro’s chassis are just such a solution, offering superior I/O performance, yet requiring far less data center space and consuming signifi cantly less power while enhancing performance, and allowing IT managers to reach aggressive cost reduction targets.
