EMC VNX5800 series unified storage system delivers uncompromising scalability and flexibility for mid-tier applications while providing market-leading simplicity and efficiency to minimize total cost of ownership. Using a modular architecture, the VNX5800 integrates hardware components for block, file and object with concurrent support for native NAS, iSCSI, Fibre Channel and FCoE protocols. The VNX5800 delivers file (NAS) functionality via 2-6 Data Movers and block (iSCSI, FCoE, and FC) storage via dual Storage Processors leveraging full 6Gbps SAS disk drive topology.

DELL EMC VNX5800 Base Knowledge.
Form Factor:
Chassis: 2U 25 (2.5”)
Standby Power Supply:
Disk Array Enclosures (DAE):
Max Drives: 750
Drives Supported: SAS, NL-SAS and Flash
I/O Supported:
Support for File (CIFS and NFS), Block (FC, iSCSI & FCoE) and Object

Storage Processor I/O Supported:
The SPs in this model use a 2.0 GHz, six-core Xeon E5 processor with 32 GB of RAM, supporting a maximum of 750 drives with the following host connectivity options: FC, iSCSI, and FCoE.
Each SP has five I/O module slots, and the VNX5800 supports the use of all five. Any slots without I/O modules populate with blanks (to ensure proper airflow).

Data Movers Enclosure (DME):
Data Mover Enclosures (DMEs) with blades containing 2.4 GHz, four-core Xeon 5600 processors with 12 GB RAM per blade, with a maximum storage capacity of 256 TB per blade.
The DMEs can house two blades per 2U enclosure, and each blade can accept a maximum of three I/O modules for front-end connectivity.

Control Station (CS):
The VNX5800 can support up to 2 Control Stations.
