Description

The HPE MSA 2070 is a 2U rack-mount entry-level shared storage array designed for growing businesses that need reliable, high-performance SAN connectivity without enterprise-level complexity. Featuring dual 16 Gb Fibre Channel 4-port controllers and support for up to 12 Large Form Factor (LFF) drives per base enclosure, it delivers up to 2x more random IOPS than the previous HPE MSA Gen6 generation — making it an ideal upgrade for virtualised environments running VMware vSphere, Windows Server, Red Hat Linux, or SUSE SLES.

As part of the HPE MSA Gen7 portfolio, the MSA 2070 scales beyond 6.78 PB raw capacity by adding up to nine MSA LFF or SFF expansion enclosures, supporting self-encrypting drives (SED) for data-at-rest security. The optional MSA Advanced Data Services Suite adds automated SSD/HDD tiering, remote snapshots, and replication, while non-disruptive online firmware updates keep the array running during maintenance windows.
