I just purchased a Clariion FC5310 DPE with an additional
10 disk DAE. I have not been able to find any documentation
that describes this thing. The SPs look different than the
ones on the FC5300.
I've done google, google groups, emc.com, and dell.com searches.
Bunch of matches for FC4700, FC5300, FC5400,....., but not
the FC5310.
Any pointers are appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

The CLARiiON FC5310 is the rack-mount version of the FC5300.
The differences that you see have to do with packaging.  The FC5310
utilizes the same FLARE code as the FC5300

John,
Thanks. I noticed that the FC5300 had separate LLCs and SPs, whereas
the FC5310 seems to have integrated the LLC and SP. I'll try and match
up the ports on my cards to the FC5300 diagrams.
