You can expand the amount of disk storage for your system using the Oracle Exadata Storage Expansion Rack. See Oracle Exadata Storage Expansion Rack Components for more information.

You can connect up to eight Oracle SuperCluster T5-8 systems together, or a combination of Oracle SuperCluster T5-8 systems and Oracle Exadata or Exalogic machines on the same InfiniBand fabric, without the need for any external switches.
