Overview

The R-Series 3U Rackmount Appliance for PCIe Gen4 is a robust, versatile test system designed to test and debug solid state drives (SSDs) of all popular storage interfaces and protocols, such as PCIe, SAS, and SATA. As the name implies, the 3U Rackmount Appliance fits in a standard 19-inch rack enclosure at a 3U height. The 3U Rackmount Appliance is powered by the OakGate Storage Validation Framework Pro (SVF Pro) engine, the industry’s most advanced storage-testing software. The robust SVF Pro software, now in its fourth generation, offers a comprehensive set of testing features and capabilities.

The OGT-R300-G4 is designed to meet the demands for high-density scaling with its seven internal motherboard PCIe slots (four Gen4 x16, one Gen4 x8, and two shared Gen3 (two at x8 and x8 or two at x16 and x0)). These slots can be used as expansion slots to connect to a variety of external enclosures, such as the OakGate 12-bay enclosures that test U.2, U.3, or EDSFF 1U SSDs. The slots can also be used for "in-appliance" testing, such as testing NVMe add-in cards or connecting to the optional OakGate 4-bay plug-in modules to test U.2, U.3, or EDSFF 1U short SSDs. The following figure shows the appliance equipped with an OakGate 4-Bay U.2 Plug-In Module and OakGate 4-Bay EDSFF 1U Short Plug-In Module to test U.2 and EDSFF 1U short SSDs, respectively.

Software Features

feature Description
Protocol Support

Enjoy the satisfaction of having builtin support for the storage industry's most popular and emerging protocols.

Traffic Generation

Easily generate high-performance, randomized traffic profiles with I/O profiles. Includes support for Zoned Namespace.

Protocol Analyzer

Effectively debug and analyze from early prototype bring-up through long-term I/O testing using the embedded protocol analyzer.

Protocol Conformance / Directed Tests

Execute hundreds of built-in conformance tests that evaluate a device against its protocol, or create your own for maximum flexibility and control. OCP 1.0 supported.

Error Injection

Inject error conditions to see how the DUT behaves in real-life situations.

Peripheral Control and Power Management

Test your product's true limits with our industry-leading multi-vendor support for peripheral control and power management.

Point and Click Automation

Create full automation suites without writing a single line of code using our integrated test automation tool.

Performance Benchmarking

Deliver consistent benchmarking results, measure the true performance of the device under test, and generate a suite of performance analytics.

Data Validation

Build confidence that your device behaves as intended and unconditionally keeps data intact, even under the most stressful power-loss situations.
