The disk system can be connected to a single host with two host bus adapters
(HBAs) in a split bus configuration. See Figure 8. Each HBA will do reads and
writes to a maximum of seven disks. This configuration can provide a maximum
capacity of approximately 1.1 Terabytes. This configuration can also do basic
mirroring across different hardware paths, still providing a maximum data
capacity of approximately 0.5 Terabytes. This configuration can also yield a
maximum performance of 320 MB/s, since each BCC card is capable of 160MB/
s performance in a split bus mode.
