This specification describes the management features and functions of a storage device class known as IP Based Drives. It includes a taxonomy covering the scope of involved device capabilities. 

The Disk Data Format (DDF) structure allows a basic level of interoperability between different suppliers of RAID technology. The Common RAID DDF structure benefits storage users by enabling data-in-place migration among systems from different vendors.

Mockup

This mockup contains a complete, simple Redfish implementation for an array of IP Based Drives. There is a top level chassis and 12 IP Based Drive chassis instances. Each of the 12 IP Based Drive chassis instances has their own system to act as the IP Based Drive interface. There is one manager that manages the top level enclosure and all nested IP Based Drives.
