Title: open computer platform open vault
Post by: newsposter on May 25, 2014, 04:40:30 pm

Facebook is sponsoring a project to define 'open' racks, servers, networking and storage blades.

The storage blade is to have the space to hold 30 2.5" drives, mechanical or SSD, multiple raid controllers, and multiple i/o paths.

HP and Foxconn are also contributing to the project.
