Fujitsu Storage Enclosures

Fujitsu storage enclosures expand the storage capacity of your Fujitsu servers. That includes PRIMERGY servers and ETERNUS disk arrays, covering everything from compact direct-attached expansion for single-server environments to high-density drive shelves for enterprise data centres.

At ITinStock, we stock a range of high-quality refurbished Fujitsu storage enclosures, from the versatile JX40 S2 (2U, up to 24 drives) through to the high-capacity JX60 S2 (4U, up to 60 drives), as well as ETERNUS DX drive enclosures.

The Benefits of Fujitsu Storage Enclosures

Fujitsu storage enclosures are designed to integrate with Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers. Different Fujitsu storage enclosures suit different business requirements. For example, the JX40 S2 supports the cascading of up to four enclosures from a single controller port. Meanwhile, the JX60 S2 houses up to 60 x 3.5” nearline drives in just 4U, making it one of the most space-efficient expansion options available.

ETERNUS DX drive enclosures provide flexibility by supporting both 2.5” and 3.5” enclosure types within the same DX array configuration, letting you deploy high-performance SSD and online drives alongside high capacity nearline disks in a single, cohesive storage environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Fujitsu storage enclosures compatible with my existing PRIMERGY servers?

Fujitsu ETERNUS JX40 S2 and JX60 S2 enclosures are designed specifically for use with certified Fujitsu PRIMERGY servers via a supported SAS RAID controller. Compatible controllers include the Fujitsu PRAID EP420e, the Fujitsu PSAS CP400e SAS Controller, and LSI MegaRAID SAS9285CV-8e or SAS9286CV-8e RAID controllers. ETERNUS DX drive enclosures connect directly to the DX controller enclosure via its rear drive interface ports and are matched to their respective DX controller generation. When you order from ITinStock, our team will confirm compatibility against your specific PRIMERGY server and controller model before dispatch.

Can I mix different drive types in a Fujitsu storage enclosure?

Yes. The ETERNUS JX40 S2 and JX60 S2 both support hybrid drive configurations, allowing SAS, Nearline SAS HDDs, and SSDs to coexist within the same enclosure. This means you can run high-performance SAS SSDs for latency-sensitive workloads alongside cost-effective SATA drives for bulk data and backups, all within a single shelf. For ETERNUS DX arrays, you can also mix 2.5” and 3.5” drive enclosure types within the same system, combining SSD and online drives in 2.5” enclosures with large-capacity nearline drives in 3.5” enclosures. Simply speak with our account managers at ITinStock to configure your enclosure with the setup required.

How many Fujitsu JX40 S2 enclosures can I daisy-chain together?

The ETERNUS JX40 S2 supports cascading of up to four enclosures from a single external SAS controller port on your PRIMERGY server. In a 2.5” drive configuration, that gives you up to 96 drives in total, all with an SSD-populated system capable of reaching up to 737 TB of raw capacity.
In a 3.5” drive configuration, cascading four enclosures provides up to 48 drives. This makes the JX40 S2 an extremely cost-efficient way to scale direct-attached storage in a PRIMERGY environment without adding further HBA cards or controller complexity.

What testing do you do for refurbished Fujitsu enclosures?

All refurbished Fujitsu storage enclosures from ITinStock are thoroughly tested prior to dispatch. Our engineers inspect and verify all drive bays, controllers, redundant power supply units, and cooling systems to ensure the unit meets its original performance specifications. Each enclosure ships with warranty coverage included as standard, with extended warranty options available for organisations that require longer coverage periods or enhanced support levels. We are confident in the quality of every unit we supply, which stems from rigorous testing prior to delivery.

Does ITinStock offer warranty on refurbished IT equipment?

Yes. All our refurbished IT equipment - servers, storage, networking and components, are thoroughly inspected and tested before dispatch to make sure they function as intended. In the event that any equipment develops a fault or arrives damaged through no fault of the customer, we offer a 3-year warranty on all refurbished equipment covering repair or replacement. Please speak with our account managers and customer service team for full warranty terms and conditions.
