Ordering Information
* Due to SCSI specifi cations, the daisy chaining of more than two Digital Video Storage Array subsystems (DVA-08K/DVA-16K) on a single Divar is NOT RECOMMENDED. Divar can address up to 6 SCSI IDs (7 for units without DVD writer) and a maximum of 2TB per ID (12TB with DVD writer or 14TB for units without a DVD writer) Stated capacities assume JBOD confi guration 8% overhead on the HDDs.
** Due to SCSI specifi cations, the daisy chaining of more than three Digital Video Storage Array subsystems (DVA-08K/DVA-16K) on a single DiBos is NOT RECOMMENDED. The maximum confi guration is (2) DVA-16Ks or (1) DVA16K and (2) DVA08Ks daisy chained. Stated capacities assume JBOD confi guration and 8% overhead on the HDDs.
*** The “G” option (Divar with Bilinx) is not available in North or South America.
