Introducing BladeSymphony 320
®

Simple, reliable compute power for the enterprise, the branch, or the remote office.

Consolidation just doesn’t get any simpler. Or more efficient. The Hitachi BladeSymphony 320 blade server
delivers a combination of compute density and enterprise-class reliability that far exceeds the capabilities of
rack-mount servers and other blade servers—with a level of simplicity that is absolutely unprecedented. It’s
the ideal platform for consolidating applications at the edge and application tier of the enterprise data center.
110-Volt Option for Simple
Deployment and Lower Cost
The 6U BladeSymphony 320 is far simpler
to deploy and manage than rack-mount
servers or other blade solutions. It is the
only blade system with a 110-volt power
option, so it plugs right in to standard
power outlets with no special equipment
or adapters. It is also the lightest 6U system
on the market. That means you can make
changes to your configurations quickly
and easily without breaking your budget
or your back.
And you’ll save on power costs with
BladeSymphony 320. With its electrically
efficient 6U form factor it draws significantly
less power than any rack-mount server
delivering comparable performance; and a
fully loaded BladeSymphony 320 draws far
less power than fully loaded competitive
blade systems.

Redefines “Power Packed”
BladeSymphony 320 packs more power
into a smaller space than any comparable
solution: up to 10 two-socket, quad-core
servers in a single 6U chassis—with 60%
space savings compared to rack-mount
server solutions. For large configurations
the system can pack 70 two-socket,
quad-core servers in a single standard
42U rack—that’s up to 560 cores in a
single rack.
And you can run your most demanding
applications with confidence because
BladeSymphony 320 has built-in reliability,
availability, and serviceability (RAS) features
that keep you up and running at high
performance 24/7. From hot-swap
components and multi-configurable power
supplies to Hitachi’s unique N+M cold
stand-by feature for automated
system failover.

The system also includes two on-board,
hot-swappable Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS)
drives, providing high performance and
application flexibility; four Gigabit Ethernet
ports per blade for high network throughput; and up to 16 GB of fully
buffered memory.

Integrated Components,
Centralized Management
BladeSymphony 320 is also easier to
administer than alternative systems,
saving you time and money. In fact, a
BladeSymphony 320 server can be
installed and brought up in a few
minutes rather than the few hours it
would take for a rack-mount server.
A wide range of optional capabilities and
components are available, such as a LAN
pass-through option, Fibre Channel ports
and switch modules for connecting to a
SAN, and remote IP KVM. These compo-

nents are all built in, so there’s less cabling,
less complexity, and less work required of
administrators. And all of the core modules
are made by Hitachi, so there are no spaceconsuming external devices to purchase
and configure, no compatibility issues to
deal with, and no worries about integrating
with the management system.
BladeSymphony’s® optional management
software suite provides centralized
management and control of all server,
network, and storage resources, including
the ability to setup and configure servers,
monitor server resources, integrate with
enterprise management software via SNMP,

Specifications

provide automatic failure notification, and
manage server assets. So there are no
hassles integrating diverse resources into
your management system. And you can
use it to manage multiple 6U chassis, so
you can scale up without moving to a new
management platform.

Uncover a Hidden Asset:
Your Floor Tiles

And BladeSymphony 320 includes an
L3 redundant Gigabit Ethernet Switch,
delivering the gigabit networking required in
today’s enterprise data centers. The switch
provides 10/100/1000 Mbps ports for connecting BladeSymphony server modules to
other networked resources within the corporate networking structure and delivers
high throughput.

Now you can consolidate on a platform that
exceeds your expectations for performance,
reliability, scalability, and manageability. You
can deploy new Web services, OLTP and
Internet commerce applications, media-rich,
compute-intensive workloads, or databasetier applications. You can cut your risk
of technology obsolescence by taking
advantage of industry standards such as
Intel®, Windows®, and Linux®.

When you’re looking to consolidate
compute-intensive workloads in your
enterprise data center, BladeSymphony
320 gives you something you never
expected: unoccupied data center floor tiles.

Equally important, you can reap the
rewards of lower acquisition, administration, and licensing costs. You can avoid
additional capital expenditures because
you can scale up on demand in finegrained increments. You can reduce the
expense of configuring, administering and
managing large numbers of discrete systems. You can fine-tune your capacity
planning and put off unnecessary hardware
purchases. And you can protect your previous investments while keeping your
options wide open.

So if you’re looking for a simple, manageable, cost-efficient way to deploy compute
power when and where you need it—or if
you’re just looking for some extra space in
your data center—you’ve found it.
BladeSymphony® 320 from Hitachi. We’re
pushing consolidation right to the edge.
