This section introduces the front and rear panel components of the DE2-24P and DE2-24C disk shelves.
The Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE2-24P is a 2U chassis that supports 24 2.5" SAS-2 drives. The high-capacity HDDs provide reliable storage. The SSDs provide accelerated write operations, and for some controllers, read-optimized cache operations. This disk shelf features dual, redundant I/O Modules (IOMs), and dual power supply with fan modules.
Figure 86 DE2-24P Drive Locations (Front View)
Up to four write-optimized log SSDs are supported per disk shelf. Log devices should be populated in order of slots 20, 21, 22, and 23.
External Read Cache Devices - Read cache devices, installed in DE2-24 disk shelves, are external to the controller and referred to as external second level adaptive replacement cache (EL2ARC). When a cluster takeover occurs, read cache remains persistent and sharable between controllers, enabling read performance to be sustained. For slot configuration details and minimum software requirements, see Disk Shelf Configurations.

The Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE2-24C is a 4U chassis that supports 24 3.5" SAS-2 drives. The high-capacity HDDs provide reliable storage. The SSDs provide accelerated write operations, and for some controllers, read-optimized cache operations. This disk shelf features dual, redundant I/O Modules (IOMs), and dual power supply with fan modules.
