HPE MSA also allows small and medium businesses to ensure their data remains secure and easily accessible by all employees, no matter where they are working from. It’s the best fit for the work from home fans. Through its new data services and a modernized architecture, HPE MSA enables customers who run on-demand businesses – like media streaming and online education – to manage their distributed applications and workloads more easily.
“The HPE MSA is ideal for the clients we serve whose businesses require a reliable, simple and low-cost storage solution that can match today’s workloads, and scale as their performance and capacity needs grow,” said Sky Cumming, Product Manager, Dicker Data, an IT distributor and HPE channel partner. The new HPE MSA Health Check tool protects against attacks and predicts failures before they happen. The new features include:
HPE MSA Gen 6 storage comes in three models; 1060, 2060, and 2062.
The HPE MSA 1060 comes with two controllers per array, two hosts per controller, either 16 Gb FC, 1/10GbE iSCSI (10GBase-T), or 12 Gb SAS connectivity, performance is quoted at 254K IOPS with 6.6GB/s throughput and up to 668TB of capacity in either SFF or LFF disks.
The HPE MSA 2060 also has two controllers per array with hour host ports per controller, the same connectivity options as the HPE MSA 1060 but with bigger performance numbers of 325K IOPS and 13.1GB/s and up to 192TB of raw capacity.
The HPE MSA 2062 is a flash-ready 2060 bundle with 2×1.92 TB RI SSDs pre-installed and an advanced data services license included.
HPE MSA 1040 is a budget-optimized, entry-level SAN storage with dual controller iSCSI/FC configurations, capacity expansion and is upgradable to MSA 2040 with Data-in-Place upgrades.
