The IBM 00ND034 is a Fibre Channel/FCoE Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed for IBM Flash System 840 storage environments and enterprise server deployments requiring high-speed SAN connectivity. This dual-port adapter supports both native Fibre Channel and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocols, enabling flexible fabric integration across legacy and converged network infrastructures. The 00ND034 delivers sustained throughput suitable for demanding database, virtualization, and high-I/O transactional workloads that depend on low-latency block storage access.
Typical deployment contexts include IBM i, AIX, and Linux environments on compatible IBM Power and x86 systems where direct attachment to Fibre Channel SANs or unified fabrics is required. The adapter integrates standard host-side connectivity and is field-installable in supported server slots. Refurbished unit has been tested and is guaranteed to specification; available for immediate quote.
