Expansion Enclosures offer 12 Gbps SAS direct-attached storage expansion
capabilities that are designed to provide simplicity, speed, scalability,
security, and high availability for small to large businesses. The D1212 and
D1224 deliver enterprise-class storage technology in a cost-effective solution
with flexible drive configurations and RAID or JBOD (non-RAID) host
connectivity.The D1212 and D1224 expansion units are designed for a wide range
of workloads, including big data and analytics, video surveillance, media
streaming, private clouds, file and print serving, e-mail and collaboration, and
databases. They also well-suited for software defined storage (SDS) and Windows
Server solutions with Storage Spaces.Figure 1. Lenovo Storage D1212 and D1224
Disk Expansion EnclosuresDid you know?The D1212 and D1224 expansion enclosures
offer flexible drive configurations with the choice of 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch
drive form factors, 10K or 15K rpm SAS and 7.2K rpm NL SAS hard disk drives
(HDDs) and self-encrypting drives (SEDs), and SAS solid-state drives (SSDs).With
support for daisy chaining, the D1212 can be scaled up to 1.15 PB for
capacity-optimized configurations with HDDs, and the D1224 can be scaled up to
192 drives for performance-optimized configurations.The D1212 and D1224
expansion units support 12 Gbps SAS connectivity, which doubles the data
transfer rate compared to 6 Gb SAS solutions to maximize performance of storage
I/O-intensive applications.Key featuresKey features and benefits provided by the
D1212 and D1224 storage expansion enclosures include: Versatile, scalable
storage expansion with dual Environmental service Module (ESM) configurations
for high availability and performance Flexible host connectivity to match
diverse client needs for direct attach storage with support for 12 Gb SAS RAID
adapters for advanced data protection or 12 Gb SAS Host Bus Adapter (HBA) for
maximum JBOD performance 12 Gb SAS drive-side connectivity with support for 12x

small form factor (SFF) drives in the D1224 enclosure Scalability of up to 96
LFF or 192 SFF drives per RAID adapter or HBA with the attachment of up to eight
D1212 or D1224 daisy-chained expansion enclosures, or a combination of both, to
satisfy growing needs for storage capacity and performance Flexibility in
storing data on high performance SAS SSDs, performance-optimized enterprise SAS
HDDs, or capacity-optimized enterprise NL SAS HDDs; mixing and matching drive
types and form factors on a single RAID adapter or HBA to perfectly meet
performance and capacity requirements for various workloads Self-encrypting
drives with a supported RAID adapter allow clients to secure their sensitive
data and to comply with various security regulations when required Support

(select models; see Table 2 and Table 3 for details) Lenovo Storage 12Gb SAN
Rack Mount Kit - Rails 25"-36" Documentation packageHost connectivityThe D1212
and D1224 drive enclosures support dual environmental service module (ESM)
configurations. Each ESM has three 12 Gb SAS x4 ports (Mini-SAS HD SFF-8644
connectors) labeled A, B, and C. These ports are used for connections to a
supported RAID adapter or HBA installed in a server and for daisy chaining the
D1212 and D1224 enclosures between each other.Port A on each ESM is used for
connecting the external SAS ports on the RAID controller or HBA to the
enclosure, or for connecting Port C on each ESM in the adjacent enclosure for
daisy chaining.Port B on each ESM is used for connecting the external SAS ports
on the RAID controller or HBA to the enclosure. Daisy-chaining does not use Port
B for connections between adjacent enclosures.Port C on each ESM is used for
connecting the external SAS ports on the RAID controller or HBA to the
enclosure, or for connecting Port A on each ESM in the adjacent enclosure for
daisy chaining.The expansion enclosures support single I/O path and dual I/O
path connectivity topology. For single I/O path configurations, each port on the
adapter can be connected to a separate chain of expansion enclosures by using
the ESM A in each connected enclosure. For dual I/O path configurations, each
port on the 2-port RAID adapter or HBA is connected to a different ESM chain
within the same chain of enclosures. For specific configuration limits, refer to
SAS RAID controllers and HBAs.For SAS RAID controllers, the controller's
firmware manages multiple I/O paths from the controller to SAS drives. For SAS
HBAs, the host operating system runs multi-pathing software to manage multiple
I/O paths.Up to eight D1212 or D1224 drive enclosures, or a combination of both,
can be daisy-chained with support for up to four hosts attached to the
chain. Without daisy-chaining, a standalone D1224 drive enclosure can support up
to six directly attached hosts. In addition, up to two D1212 and up to two
D3284 drive enclosures, or one D1224 and up to two D3284 drive enclosures can be
daisy-chained with support for up to two hosts attached to the chain.The
following figures illustrate different host connectivity topologies.Figure 5.
Connectivity topology with one hostFigure 6. Connectivity topology with
two hostsFigure 7. Connectivity topology with four hostsFor topologies with four
or more hosts, SAS Y-cables are required to connect the hosts to the drive
enclosure. The SAS Y-cable allows two hosts be connected to one SAS port on the
ESM. The Y-cables and standard cables are mutually exclusive, that is, either
Y-cables or standard cables can be used to connect the hosts to the same drive
enclosure, but not both types.The SAS zoning feature of the D1212 and
D1224 specifies how multiple hosts access drives in the enclosures. If SAS
zoning is disabled, all attached hosts can access all drives in the enclosures,
which is typically used in standalone single-host or clustered multi-host
environments, where all cluster nodes need access to all drives. If SAS zoning
is enabled, each connected host has exclusive access to a predefined set of
drives in the same enclosure, and multiple hosts are isolated from each
other.Configuration notes: Attachment of more than one host to the same
enclosure without SAS zoning is supported with HBAs only (RAID controllers are
not supported). While all attached hosts are capable of accessing all drives in
the enclosures, the clustering software running on the hosts controls
which cluster nodes have access to the drives at any given time. With SAS zoning
enabled, only standalone enclosures without daisy-chaining can be partitioned
for multiple host access.The supported zone configurations are shown in the
following table.Note: Mode 0 means that zoning is disabled. Table 4. D1212 and

services and upgradesThe D1212 and D1224 have a three-year customer-replaceable
unit (CRU) warranty with standard call center support during normal business
hours and 9x5 Next Business Day Parts Delivered.Some countries might have
different warranty terms and conditions than the standard warranty. This is due
to local business practices or laws in the specific country. Local service teams
can assist in explaining country-specific terms when needed. Examples of
country-specific warranty terms are second or longer business day parts delivery
or parts-only base warranty.If warranty terms and conditions include onsite
labor for repair or replacement of parts, Lenovo will dispatch a service
technician to the customer site to perform the replacement. Onsite labor under
base warranty is limited to labor for replacement of parts that have been
determined to be field-replaceable units (FRUs). Parts that are determined to be
customer-replaceable units (CRUs) do not include onsite labor under base
warranty.If warranty terms include parts-only base warranty, Lenovo is
responsible for delivering only replacement parts that are under base warranty
(including FRUs) that will be sent to a requested location for self-service.
Parts-only service does not include a service technician being dispatched
onsite. Parts must be changed at customer?s own cost and labor and defective
parts must be returned following the instructions supplied with the spares
parts.Also available are Lenovo Services warranty upgrades and post-warranty
maintenance agreements, with a well-defined scope of services, including service
hours, response time, term of service, and service agreement terms and
conditions.Lenovo warranty service upgrade offerings are country-specific. Not
all warranty service upgrades are available in every country. For information
about Lenovo warranty service upgrade offerings that are available in your
country or area, refer to the following resources: Service part numbers in
