I'm looking at this Netapp drive shelf on eBay (Australia):
I can't find much info on the unit, but it has been suggested to me that Netapp drive shelves are a great option for adding a bigger array to a 1U server.
I don't have a lot of depth available in my home rack, so I've decided to get one of the shallower Dell servers and pair it with a drive shelf.
This one appears to have mini-SAS ports but it's really hard to tell from the images on eBay.
Is this actually a Netapp drive shelf or has the seller just typed Netapp in there to attract buyers searching for Netapp?
I'm also looking at this EMC unit:
Maybe this one is a safer bet as it's actually labeled EMC and the images of the back are clearer.
What controller card would I need in the Dell server to attach this?
Preliminary research suggests H800 would do the trick..
