The HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 60 (MSA60) is a high-density, external storage enclosure designed to provide reliable and scalable storage solutions. The enclosure supports up to twelve 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives, offering flexibility for various storage needs. Its modular architecture makes it easy to add capacity to existing storage infrastructures by directly connecting either SAS or SATA drives to multiple servers or storage controllers, depending on your overall system configuration.
The MSA60 supports a total capacity of 12 TB when fully populated with 1 TB SATA drives, making it an ideal choice for businesses requiring high storage density. Furthermore, it features a SAS 3Gb/s host interface that allows for optimized data transfer rates. This model offers wide interoperability as it can be connected to a variety of servers through compatible RAID controllers or adapters, thus enhancing its performance and storage availability.
For reliability, the MSA60 enclosure offers redundant power supplies and fans, ensuring that the system remains operational even in case of individual component failures. Its compact 2U form factor makes it suitable for rack deployments, maximising available space without sacrificing storage capacity or reliability. The modular design allows for hot-swappable drive bays, meaning drives can be added or replaced without taking the system offline. This hot-swap capability ensures minimal disruption to overall operations while maintaining data integrity and availability.
