EMC Isilon NL400 Boot Drive Replacement - Availability - R - Storage

The original poster is having trouble finding a replacement boot drive for their EMC Isilon NL400 storage nodes, as the original drives are now end-of-life and unavailable from Dell EMC or third parties. Other users suggest trying a SATA SSD as a potential replacement, but note that the node may get stuck on boot requiring the user to manually enter "BOOT" at the prompt to finish booting and rebuilding the RAID.

EMC Isilon NL400 boot drive replacement/availability


According to Dell EMC rep's the boot drives for NL400's are "EOL and not available for quoting/purchase from Dell EMC "

I've had no luck finding a third party replacement drive. There is one webstore (M4L) that claims to sell a replacement but
three separate companies/reps said the drives are incompatible.

Anyone else have this problem and resolve it?

Is it production, but not under warranty? If memory serves me, those Lok just like satadom's. Could try one of those.
Either it will rebuild... Or not.

I've been losing these things left and right. We have a third party support contract, but they ran out themselves.

Also one issue I've run into while replacing these things is the node will get stuck on boot. It will be loading modules
and just stop. If you hit enter it says "OK" and/or "NOT FOUND". The solution to this is to just type "BOOT" and hit
enter. It then finishes booting and rebuilds the gmirror.

Good luck with your cluster.
