Current Storage
Current CSEP usage is at 8.5Tb on operational server. We are also introducing new experiments with models using synthetic catalogs, CSEP might start using much more storage based on how big and how many of synthetic catalogs models will be generating.
Storage Options
Direct attached, 60TB usable, $13.5k Direct attached 220TB usable, $20.5k
1013757565306 The MD3460 is a SAS array - and you can connect more than one host to it however there is no switch so it is DAS via 12G sas. This array has onboard storage processors with mirrored cache and can be expanded to 60 drives plus up to 2 more 60 drive shelves. Note this array does require 20amp circuit. I have included 3yrs 4hour critical support installation and 96TB raw.
1023015889109 The MD1200 is a JBOD which uses a Perc Controller to attach to host server. This is for 12G servers only (so R720xd is good). This shelf of drives has 12x3.5" slots so I quoted two MD1200's for raw capacity of 96TB. You can chain more shelves together if you need to expand later. I have included 3yrs 4hour critical support installation and 96TB raw.
