Huawei OceanStor N8500-BSC-E2M32G-G8-DC-1 32GB Storage

Brand:

The Huawei OceanStor N8500-BSC-E2M32G-G8-DC-1 is a Basic Version N8500 cluster-head configuration built around two nodes, 2 CPUs, 32GB cache, eight GE host ports, and DC power. It is designed for enterprise storage environments requiring a dual-node architecture and Ethernet host connectivity. The SPE61C0200 controller platform identifies this configuration within the N8500 family, while the DC-powered design makes it relevant to data centers and infrastructure environments standardized on direct-current power.

OVERVIEW

  • The N8500-BSC-E2M32G-G8-DC-1 is the Basic Version of the Huawei OceanStor N8500 cluster-head family, combining two nodes, 2 CPUs, 32GB cache, 8 GE host ports and DC power. Compatibility: intended for supported OceanStor N8500 deployments using the SPE61C0200 platform and GE host connectivity. Model comparison: N8500-STD adds 48GB cache, while N8500-ENT provides 4 CPUs and 96GB cache.

USE CASES

  • Enterprise file-storage infrastructure — Provides a two-node N8500 cluster-head configuration for organizations building centralized storage services around an Ethernet-connected storage environment.
  • DC-powered data centers — The DC power configuration makes this SKU relevant where the facility infrastructure is designed around direct-current power rather than the AC version.
  • Two-node storage deployments — The two-node configuration provides a defined cluster-head architecture for deployments where redundant node design is required.
  • Enterprise NAS environments — The N8500 family is positioned for clustered NAS storage, making this configuration suitable for centralized file-serving infrastructure. 
  • Virtualized application storage — Can serve as part of an enterprise storage infrastructure supporting applications that require centralized access to shared storage resources.
  • Data-intensive business workloads — The 32GB cache configuration provides a substantial controller-side cache resource for storage workloads where caching can improve I/O responsiveness.
  • Ethernet-connected storage networks — Eight GE host ports provide multiple Ethernet host interfaces for supported network connectivity and storage access.
  • N8500 cluster expansion projects — Provides a specific Basic Version configuration for organizations standardizing on the OceanStor N8500 family and planning compatible cluster infrastructure.
  • Infrastructure standardization — The clearly defined SKU, node count, cache capacity, host-port count and DC power type simplify BOM creation and replacement planning.

KEY FEATURES

  • Two-node cluster-head architecture — Provides a dual-node N8500 configuration for storage deployments requiring a clustered architecture rather than a single standalone controller.
  • 2 CPU configuration — Supplies the specified processing configuration for the Basic Version, making the SKU easier to match against workload and procurement requirements.
  • 32GB cache — Provides controller cache capacity intended to improve storage I/O handling and reduce dependence on slower underlying storage operations for frequently accessed data.
  • 8 GE host ports — Provides eight Gigabit Ethernet host interfaces, giving administrators multiple network connectivity options for supported storage environments.
  • DC power configuration — Identifies this SKU for installations using direct-current infrastructure and differentiates it from the corresponding AC-powered configuration.
  • SPE61C0200 platform — Uses the specified N8500 controller platform, helping buyers match the storage head to an existing N8500 architecture.
  • OceanStor N8500 Basic Version — Establishes the product's position within the N8500 family and provides a lower-resource configuration than the listed Standard and Enterprise variants.
  • Cluster expansion support — The configuration is identified as supporting cluster expansion, allowing it to participate in scalable N8500 storage architectures where supported.

Why Choose This Product?

  • Exact N8500 Basic configuration — Buyers get a clearly defined two-node configuration with 2 CPUs, 32GB cache and 8 GE host ports, simplifying configuration validation before purchase.
  • Designed for DC infrastructure — The DC power version is a better procurement match for facilities that already operate direct-current infrastructure, avoiding an unnecessary AC configuration.
  • Dual-node architecture — Two nodes provide a clustered foundation for enterprise storage deployments and can support greater infrastructure resilience than a single-node design.
  • Balanced entry configuration — The 32GB cache and 2-CPU configuration positions this SKU as a practical choice when the higher resource levels of N8500 Standard or Enterprise variants are not required.
  • Eight Ethernet host ports — Multiple GE host interfaces provide useful connectivity capacity for supported host and storage-network designs.
  • Straightforward model differentiation — The SKU clearly distinguishes the Basic, 32GB, 8GE and DC configuration, reducing the risk of ordering an AC variant or a different cache tier.
  • N8500 family scalability — The product is part of a family that includes higher-resource configurations, allowing organizations to standardize on the platform while selecting hardware according to deployment requirements. 
  • Procurement-ready identification — The exact SKU N8500-BSC-E2M32G-G8-DC-1 and platform code SPE61C0200 make BOM validation, quotation requests and replacement sourcing more precise.
