Description

The HPE MSA 2070 LFF Storage Array is a 2U Gen7 entry-level shared storage solution designed for SMB and remote-office deployments that demand reliable, scalable SAN connectivity. Featuring two redundant 16Gb Fibre Channel 4-port controllers and 12 open Large Form Factor drive bays, this array delivers up to 2x more IOPS and 30% greater sequential bandwidth than the previous MSA Gen6 generation — making it an ideal upgrade path for organisations outgrowing their existing shared storage infrastructure. Drives are sold separately, giving you full flexibility over capacity and media type.

The MSA 2070 LFF supports expansion to up to 9x additional 2U LFF 12-drive enclosures, enabling raw capacity growth beyond 2.88PB per array and scalability beyond 7PB with mixed enclosures. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and MSA-DP+ are supported natively, with optional Advanced Data Services licensing unlocking remote snapshot replication, extended snapshot counts, and sub-LUN tiering. Non-disruptive online firmware updates and HPE's SMU v.4 management utility simplify ongoing administration. In stock and ready to ship from iptrading.com.au — order now for fast dispatch.

FAQs

Q: Does the HPE MSA 2070 LFF (P89065-B25) include drives?
A: No — the P89065-B25 ships as a drive-free chassis with 12 open LFF bays. You can populate it with HPE-supported LFF SAS HDDs, SSDs, or self-encrypting drives (SEDs) purchased separately, giving you full control over capacity and tiering configuration.

Q: What host connectivity does this array provide?
A: The MSA 2070 LFF includes two redundant controllers, each with four 16Gb Fibre Channel SFP+ ports — providing eight total FC host ports for high-availability SAN attachment. This makes it well-suited for VMware, Windows, and Linux virtualisation environments with FC fabrics.

Q: How much can this array scale?
A: The base unit supports 12 LFF drives and can be expanded with up to 9x additional MSA 2U LFF 12-drive Expansion Enclosures. This enables raw capacity of up to 2.88PB LFF in the base unit alone, with total array scalability beyond 7PB using high-capacity HDD media.

Q: Is an Advanced Data Services licence required for replication and snapshots?
A: The array includes 64 snapshots as standard without any licence. The optional MSA Advanced Data Services Suite upgrades snapshot capacity to 512, enables remote snapshot (asynchronous array-based replication), and unlocks sub-LUN automated tiering between storage tiers.

Q: Can I update firmware without taking the array offline?
A: Yes — the HPE MSA 2070 supports non-disruptive online firmware updates for both the controllers and installed drive media, minimising planned maintenance windows for production environments.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE MSA 2070 LFF (P89065-B25) in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes — IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller with this unit in stock and ready for fast dispatch. Contact the team for volume pricing, expansion enclosure bundles, or drive configuration advice tailored to your environment.
