HPE STORAGE

Disk Storage System

Modular Smart Arrays

The new HP MSA 1040 Storage is designed for entry-level market needs, features 8Gb Fibre Channel, 1GbE, and 10GbE iSCSI at previously unattainable entry price points. The new array allows users to take advantage of the latest storage technologies in simple and efficient ways by providing a good balance between performance and budget resulting in a highly favorable $/GB return on their investment.

Entry consolidation and virtualization initiatives are now well in your budgetary reach. The MSA 1040 offers many of MSA 2040 features but at more affordable entry price points. ProLiant and BladeSystems administrators as well as IT generalists will find storage management tasks simple and intuitive with MSA.

The MSA 1040 arrays leverage a new 4th-generation MSA architecture with a new processor, 2-host ports and 4GB cache per controller. Take advantage of the latest hard drive advances by choosing the form factor and technology which best meets your application and budget requirements. Unlike many competing arrays, the MSA 1040 ships standard with intuitive management tools and powerful data services such as Snapshots and Volume Copy for increased data protection.

HPE MSA 2060 Storage Array

The HPE MSA 2060 is a flash-ready hybrid storage system designed to deliver hands-free, affordable application acceleration for small and remote office deployments.  Don't let the low cost fool you.   It gives you the combination of simplicity, flexibility, and advanced features you may not expect in an entry-priced array.  Start small and scale as needed with any combination of solid state drives (SSDs), high-performance Enterprise SAS HDDs, or lower-cost Midline SAS HDDs.  With the ability to deliver 325,000 IOPS, the new MSA 2060 is up to 45% faster than its prior generation with ample horsepower for even the most demanding workloads.

New 6th Gen MSA storage architecture (HW + SW) that provides a modernized HW platform with more resources for features such as Tiering 2.0, a new RAID protection scheme (MSA-DP+), a new task-optimized web interface, and highly optimized data management through a new RESTful interface. Improved array performance that provides more IOPS, bandwidth and backend connectivity; up to 45% increase on IOPS, and up to 70% improvement on sequential throughput vs MSA Gen 5 (depending on protocol). Capable of delivering over 325,000 IOPS for affordable application acceleration for small to medium-sized businesses. Simple made simpler with a new disk group type (MSA-DP+) that increases availability, dramatically decreases RAID rebuild times, improves performance, and simplifies setup (eliminates Power of 2 requirements, automatically handles spares), and provides more granular expansion of disk pools.
