Broadcom Inc.
(NASDAQ:AVGO) today announced it is extending its collaboration
with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) in server storage offerings
and will showcase them this week at HPE Discover. Broadcom will
highlight benefits of the SFF-TA-1001 specification commonly known
as the U.3 reference platform with a U.3 universal drive cage
demonstration featuring Toshiba U.3-enabled NVMe™, SAS, and SATA
drives. This development further expands Broadcom’s collaboration
with HPE, which now includes the addition of a Broadcom 24-port
RAID controller to the HPE ProLiant Gen10 server family.
“Broadcom is growing its investment in HPE server storage
solutions, which continues to drive our mission to enable the
storage ecosystem with flexibility, performance and
simplification,” said Jas Tremblay, vice president and general
manager, Data Center Solutions Group, Broadcom. “The
addition of our high-port RAID controller to the HPE ProLiant
family further extends the footprint of Broadcom Data Center server
storage products offered to HPE customers, continuing our heritage
of delivering robust data protection and application uptime to the
market.”
“Standardizing how IT infrastructure is managed is at the core
of HPE’s commitment to simplify hybrid IT for our customers,” said
Tom Lattin, vice president and general manager, Mass Market
Platforms, Options and Software at HPE. “By collaborating with
partners like Broadcom on industry standards such as U.3 Universal
Drive Bay, HPE helps global businesses deploy more versatile and
streamlined server infrastructure. Universal backplanes that
incorporate emerging NVMe drives with SAS and SATA will give
customers the flexibility to choose the most optimized drive
configurations for their workloads.”
U.3 allows SAS and SATA HDDs and SAS, SATA, and NVMe SSDs to
operate in a single bay without the complexity of wiring for
multiple protocols. More information on U.3 can be obtained from:
http://www.snia.org/sff/specifications. The collaboration between
Broadcom and HPE is enabling data center customers and drive
partners like Toshiba with the right mix of product, technical
expertise, and support.
“The development of the U.3 standard was critical for the
advancement of flexible, lower-cost storage systems that utilize a
mix of SAS, SATA and NVMe devices,” said Steve Fingerhut,
Senior Vice President, General Manager, SSD and Cloud Software
Business Units at Toshiba Memory America, Inc. “We are pleased
to enable the collaborative demonstration at HPE Discover with a
range of our U.3-enabled SSDs. This is an excellent forum to
showcase the benefits of Toshiba technology to system OEM and data
center customers, which include lowering costs and simplifying
complexity.”
In addition to now providing customers with more flexibility,
simplification, and choices, Broadcom and HPE have joined forces to
build a better solution to scale on demand with the addition of the
Broadcom 24-port RAID controller to HPE
ProLiant Gen10 servers. The HPE Smart Array P824i-p MR
SAS controller delivers highly flexible, expander-less storage
solutions ideal for servers with a high drive count such as
the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10.
