Hyve Solutions Corporation announces the Hyve Hercules 9120 ultra-high density mass storage platform.

The 768 hard drives per rack storage powerhouse, features eight 5U chassis, provides advances in reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS). The platform’s patent-pending rotational vibration interference (RVI) mitigating design coupled with PCIe 5.0 support and ultra-high density (96 hard drives per 5U system), contribute to this being one of the top best-of-breed solutions for hyperscale storage. Its design raises the bar in areas of vibration control, cooling, PCI Express bandwidth, modularity and improved interoperability with future Open Compute Project’s (OCP) Data Center Modular Hardware System (DC-MHS) implementation.

“Data is an essential foundation for the world of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). When crafting a well-rounded datacenter strategy, it’s crucial to emphasize the significance of storage,” notes Steve Ichinaga, President, Hyve Solutions. “Hercules serves as a key ultra-mass storage platform providing Hyperscalers current and future expected storage demands, regardless of their AI/ML strategies.”

The Hyve Hercules platform supports both Intel® 5th Gen Xeon® Scalable Processor and 4th Gen AMD EPYCTM processors (formerly codenamed “Genoa”). As with all Hyve standard platforms, Hercules adheres to Open Compute Project’s Open Edge server standards.

Hyve’s RVI innovations are certified to allow Hercules to support 50TB drives due to reach the market in the 2026 timeframe.
