A Dell EqualLogic PS series storage array includes redundant, hot-swappable disks, fans, power supplies, and control
modules. A failure in one of these components does not cause the array to be offline. The failed component can be
replaced without bringing the storage array down.
The following section lists hardware requirements for the Dell EqualLogic PS series storage arrays.

NOTE: Ensure that the storage array(s) are running a supported firmware version. For specific firmware version
requirements, see the
NICs Dedicated To iSCSI
The NIC controlled by the iSCSI software initiator acts as an I/O adapter to connect the expansion bus of the system and
the storage array(s). Failover Cluster solutions that are configured with the EqualLogic PS Series storage arrays require
two iSCSI NICs or NIC ports in each PowerEdge system. This provides redundant paths and load balance of the I/O data
transfer to or from the storage array(s).
Network Switches Dedicated To iSCSI
The Gigabit or 10 Gigabit switches for iSCSI access function as regular network switches and provide dedicated
interconnection between the nodes and the storage array(s).
Requirement
One or more Dell EqualLogic PS Series groups. Each Dell EqualLogic PS5000/PS5500/
PS6000/PS6010/PS6100/PS6110/PS6500/PS6510 group supports up to sixteen storage
arrays (members) and each PS4000/PS4100/PS4110 group supports up to two storage
arrays. For specific storage array requirements, see Dell EqualLogic PS Series Storage
Array Requirements
All nodes must be attached to one or more storage arrays through an iSCSI SAN.
Can share one or more supported storage arrays.
