High-performance 24-bay flash expansion. Delivers ultra-low latency and consistent throughput for our intensive all-flash storage arrays.
Exceptional build quality for flash density. This unit provides a professional way to scale our high-speed networking.
Robust and reliable flash expansion. It ensures our enterprise storage maintains its blazing performance as we grow.
Superior throughput for performance-sensitive tasks. Perfect for scaling our mission-critical all-flash infrastructure with total stability.
Trustworthy and efficient expansion. It provides the high-speed data access our production environment demands daily.
Outstanding 24-bay flash density. The FX2421 is a critical component for maintaining our top-tier storage speeds.
The FX2421 is a 24-bay, diskless NVMe flash expansion enclosure designed to expand storage capacity for compatible NAS and SAN systems.
The FX2421 supports major enterprise NAS models from leading vendors that offer an expansion port, including QNAP, Synology, and NetApp.
Slide each NVMe SSD into a drive bay until it clicks, secure the bay handle, and connect the enclosure to your host chassis using the provided SAS cables.
No, the FX2421 is sold diskless, allowing you to choose and install your preferred NVMe SSD models.
RAID functionality is managed by your host system; the FX2421 simply provides raw NVMe capacity for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, or custom configurations.
Each FX2421 bay shares a total of eight PCIe 3.0 lanes via dual SAS connectors, offering up to 6 GB/s per channel.
With 24 NVMe SSDs of up to 8 TB each, the FX2421 can scale to a maximum of 192 TB raw flash capacity.
Yes. It features dual hot-swappable power supplies and three redundant front-to-back fans for continuous cooling and uptime.
The FX2421 measures 482 × 330 × 88 mm (19″ × 13″ × 3.5″) and weighs approximately 12 kg without drives.
You can mix brands and capacities, but for optimal performance and reliability we recommend uniform SSDs across all bays.
Use your host’s storage management utility to monitor SMART data, temperature, and wear leveling for each NVMe SSD installed.
Under full load, the FX2421 draws approximately 350 W, with idle power around 150 W, depending on SSD selection.
Remote management is handled via your host platform’s existing management interface; the FX2421 itself does not provide a separate GUI.
The FX2421 operates in 0–40 °C (32–104 °F) with 5–95% non-condensing humidity, making it suitable for standard data center racks.
The unit comes with a standard three-year limited hardware warranty, including parts and labor for manufacturer defects.
Use enterprise-grade NVMe SSDs, ensure PCIe 3.0 x8 link stability, and configure RAID tiers according to your workload’s I/O profile.
Authorized resellers and your vendor’s online store stock replacement fans, power supplies, and drive trays for the FX2421.
