The HP StorageWorks 70 Modular Smart Array is an end-to-end flexible storage array, offering data availability, enhanced reliability, enhanced performance and tiered storage capability with SAS and SATA drives and investment protection.
Manage your small and midrange business growing storage needs by deploying this low cost, flexible tiered storage system with up to 14.4 TB (100 drives across four enclosures) capacity supporting both SAS and SATA. The modular, scalable design of the MSA70 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. Additional drives and enclosures can be easily added as customer needs dictate without extra management charges as needs grow. For Small businesses, it is a stepping stone to simplify capacity expansion of ProLiant Server environments to external storage without having to make the full move to SAN or NAS. For fast growing Small or Medium businesses MSA70 can scale to multiple TBytes, by adding additional drive bays.
This enclosure is designed to support the 2.5" Universal form factor hard drive in either SAS or SATA. Configuration and setup is easy with HP Array Configuration Utility (ACU). The 2U storage supports direct attach storage to HP ProLiant and HP Integrity Servers. Enclosures can be cascaded in a 1+1 configuration allowing a maximum of 50 drives in a 4U configuration behind each port on the Smart Array P800 controller for a total of 100 drives.
