HP Storageworks MSA60 Modular Smart Array

Storageworks MSA60 Modular Smart Array: Description

Manage your small and midrange business growing storage needs by deploying this low cost, flexible tiered storage system with up to 3.6TB of SAS storage or 9TB of SATA storage per enclosure or up to 72TB (eight enclosures). The modular, scalable design of the MSA60 provides a flexible platform allowing you to buy what is needed today and purchase additional capacity as data storage needs grow, instead of making a large up-front investment. For small businesses, it is a stepping stone to simplify capacity expansion of HP ProLiant or HP Integrity server environments to external storage without having to make the full move to SAN or NAS. For fast growing small or medium businesses MSA60 can scale to multiple Terabytes, by adding additional drive bays. This enclosure is designed to support the 3.5 inch hard drive supporting the mixing of SAS and SATA drives in the same enclosure. Configuration and setup is easy with HP Array Configuration Utility (ACU)
