IBM 45D9978: 12X I/O drawer, 4U 19-inch, PCIe with SFF DASD disk bays, for Power6/Power7 systems.

The IBM 45D9978 is a 12X I/O drawer for IBM Power Systems, a 19-inch, 4U PCIe expansion unit fitted with SFF DASD disk bays alongside its PCIe adapter slots, the disk-equipped counterpart to the no-disk 5877 drawer (45D9977) documented separately in this range. It connects to a host Power6 or Power7 server over a 12X loop, extending both PCIe adapter capacity and internal disk storage in a single 4U rack-mounted enclosure. Drawers of this generation remain in active service in established Power Systems estates that have not migrated to a newer expansion drawer standard. Specifiers should confirm the exact drawer feature code and host system compatibility (Power6 versus Power7) before ordering, since the two generations are not universally interchangeable. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM Power Systems components to support ongoing expansion and maintenance projects.
