IBM EJ1E-IBM – Split #EJ1C to 6+6 SFF-3 Bays: Add 2nd SAS

Detailed Description:

The IBM EJ1E-IBM is a unique storage expansion option designed to be used in conjunction with the EJ1C storage backplane. This splitter accessory allows the original 6-bay SFF-3 configuration of the EJ1C to be expanded into a dual 6-bay setup, effectively doubling the server’s storage capacity by allowing the addition of an additional 6 SFF-3 drive bays. This enables a total of 12 SAS or SATA storage drives to be installed, significantly increasing the storage density and flexibility of IBM server systems. It is particularly useful for data-heavy applications and environments where storage demands continue to grow. The addition of a second SAS connection enhances data transfer speeds and reliability, ensuring that high-performance storage solutions can be realized. The EJ1E-IBM splitter is an essential component for businesses looking to maximize their storage capabilities on existing IBM servers, leveraging the primary benefits of flexibility, scalability, and enhanced performance.
