Notes: Available as spare drive or data disks. The acoustic level is measured under the following conditions in accordance with ISO7779 and the value is declared based on ISO9296. In a normal installation area (data center/general office), the storage system is surrounded by different elements from the following measuring conditions according to ISO, such as noise sources other than the storage system (other devices), the walls and ceilings that reflect the sound. Therefore, the values described in the table do not guarantee the acoustic level in the actual installation area. Measurement environment: In a semi-anechoic room whose ambient temperature is 23ºC ± 2ºC Device installation position: The Controller Chassis is at the bottom of the rack and the Drive Box is at a height of 1.5m in the rack. Measurement position: 1m away from the front, rear, left or right side of the storage system and 1.5m high (at four points). Measurement value: Energy average value of the four points (front, rear, left and right). It is recommended to install the Hitachi Vantara storage system into a data center. However, you can install the storage system into an office space but the space should be equipped with proper cooling systems and noise insulation. When you are installing a storage system into a regular office space, observe the following: The cooling fans in the storage system are compact and the high rotational speed of the cooling fan blades causes high-frequency noise. Sound pressure level (LA) changes from 66dB to 75dB according to the ambient temperature, drive configuration and operating status. The maximum could be 79dB during maintenance procedure for failed ENC or Power Supply. Acoustic power level (LwA) measured by ISO7779 condition is 7.2B. And it changes from 7.2B to 8.1B according to the ambient temperature, drive configuration and operating status.

Power consumption (VA/W)	490/490 or less	DBS: 320/310 or less DBL: 280/260 or less
Note: The power current of N2 described in this table is required for operation by a single power supply unit. If one power supply unit fails, another power supply unit requires electric current for the two power supply units. Therefore, plan the power supply facility so the current carrying capacity of one power supply unit can provide a total capacity of the two power supply units. Power requirement for the maximum configuration is shown. Value at 100 V/200 V is shown. The actual required power may exceed the value shown in the table when the tolerance is included.

Environmental specifications

The following table describes the environmental specifications for the VSP G130.

Note: The VSP G130 storage system components are not supported in high-temperature environments. Do not operate the Hitachi Vantara-provided service processor (SVP) at temperatures of 40°C or higher.

Notes: The system internal temperature controls the rotating speed of the fan. This value might be exceeded if the maximum load continues under high temperature environment or if a failure occurs in the system. Sound pressure level [LA] changes from 66dB to 75dB according to the ambient temperature, drive configuration, and operating status. The maximum value can reach 79dB during maintenance procedure for failed ENC or power supply unit. Fire-suppression systems and pneumatic sirens can generate high levels of acoustic noise and affect system performance. It can also cause vibrations to the hard disk drives (HDD) in the storage systems resulting in I/O errors, performance degradation in and to some extent damage to the HDDs. The noise level tolerance of HDDs may vary among different models, designs, capacities and manufacturers. The recommended acoustic noise level for an operating environment is 90dB or less in order to ensure reliable operations when placing a Hitachi Vantara storage system two meters from the source of the noise. Hitachi Vantara does not test storage systems and HDDs for compatibility with fire suppression systems and pneumatic sirens. Hitachi Vantara also does not provide recommendations or claim compatibility with any fire suppression systems and pneumatic sirens. The customer is responsible to follow their local or national regulations. To prevent I/O error or damages to HDDs in the storage systems, Hitachi Vantara recommends the following: Install noise-reducing baffles to mitigate the noise to the HDDs in the storage systems. Consult the fire suppression system manufacturers on noise reduction nozzles to reduce the acoustic noise to protect the HDDs in the storage systems. Locate the storage system as far as possible from noise sources such as emergency sirens. If it can be safely done without risk of personal injury, shut down the storage systems to avoid data loss and damages to the HDDs in the storage systems. Damage to HDDs from fire suppression systems or pneumatic sirens voids the HDD warranty. See ANSI/ISA-71.04-2013 Environmental Conditions for Process Measurement and Control Systems: Airborne Contaminants. Meets the highest allowable temperature conditions and complies with ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) 2011 Thermal Guidelines Class A3. The maximum value of the ambient temperature and the altitude is from 40°C at an altitude of 950 meters (3000 feet) to 28°C at an altitude of 3050 meters (10000 feet). The allowable ambient temperature is decreased by 1°C for every 175-meter increase in altitude above 950 meters. The acoustic level is measured under the following conditions in accordance with ISO7779 and the value is declared based on ISO9296. In a normal installation (data center/office), the storage system is surrounded by different elements from the following measuring conditions according to ISO, such as noise sources other than the storage system (other devices), the walls and ceilings that reflect the sound.
