Product Guide
The Lenovo Storage D1212 and D1224 Disk Expansion Enclosures offer 12 Gbps SAS direct-
attached storage expansion capabilities that are designed to provide simplicity, speed, scalability, security,
and high availability for small to large businesses. The D1212 and D1224 deliver enterprise-class storage
technology in a cost-effective solution with flexible drive configurations and RAID or JBOD (non-RAID) host
connectivity.
The D1212 and D1224 expansion units are designed for a wide range of workloads, including big data and
analytics, video surveillance, media streaming, private clouds, file and print serving, e-mail and
collaboration, and databases. They also well-suited for software defined storage (SDS) and Windows
Server solutions with Storage Spaces.

Did you know?
The D1212 and D1224 expansion enclosures offer flexible drive configurations with the choice of 2.5-inch
and 3.5-inch drive form factors, 10K or 15K rpm SAS and 7.2K rpm NL SAS hard disk drives (HDDs) and
self-encrypting drives (SEDs), and SAS solid-state drives (SSDs).
With support for daisy chaining, the D1212 can be scaled up to 960 TB for capacity-optimized
configurations with HDDs, and the D1224 can be scaled up to 192 drives for performance-optimized
configurations.
The D1212 and D1224 expansion units support 12 Gbps SAS connectivity, which doubles the data
transfer rate compared to 6 Gb SAS solutions to maximize performance of storage I/O-intensive
applications.
