The HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 2000 Single I/O, part number AJ749A, is designed as a cost-effective storage solution for small to medium-sized businesses. This storage enclosure provides high-performance, reliable data storage and is intended primarily for SAN and direct-attached storage (DAS) applications. This model is equipped with a Single I/O controller, which is suitable for environments where dual controller configurations are not a necessity, thus reducing cost without compromising on essential functionality.
The enclosure supports up to 12 3.5-inch SAS or SATA hard drives, boosting scalability for a wide range of storage capacities depending on the specific drives used. It enables high-speed data transfers using Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) technology, catering to businesses requiring faster response times for their storage. It also functions well in mixed environments where transactional performance (SAS) combined with large capacity (SATA) may be required.
The HP StorageWorks MSA 2000 features an easy-to-use centralised management interface that allows administrators to oversee and perform various storage operations seamlessly. In terms of connectivity, the enclosure is equipped with one host port for connecting to the host systems, offering flexibility in integration with existing SAN environments. Built with modularity in mind, it enables IT departments to scale up storage easily by daisy-chaining additional enclosures, providing substantial future-proofing for growing enterprises.
An important feature of the MSA 2000 series is its reliability. The system is not only physically durable but also equipped with hot-swappable drives, ensuring that any potential drive failures can be addressed without system downtime. This helps maintain operational efficiency and reduces maintenance overheads for storage administrators.
