ZS7-2 Acoustic Noise Emissions

The workplace-dependent noise level of this product is 8.1 Bels A-weighted Operating, and 5.8 Bels A-weighted Idling (measured Sound Power).

ZS7-2 Configuration Options

The ZS7-2 high-end model incorporates one or two controllers and one to forty-eight disk shelves. Each controller has 11 PCle Gen3 slots in the rear, and 12 3.5" disk slots in the front, two of which are occupied by system disks. Read cache devices are installed in disk shelves; therefore, the remaining ten front disk slots have permanent filler panels. The following table describes the configuration options.
