HPE R0Z26A MSA 2060 12Gb SAS SFF Storage Array
Overview
The HPE R0Z26A MSA 2060 is a high-performance, flash-ready hybrid storage system designed to deliver hands-free, affordable application acceleration for small and remote office deployments. It provides a flexible and cost-effective entry point into storage area networks (SANs), solving the challenge of meeting demanding performance and budget requirements without extensive IT staff. This sixth-generation MSA architecture is engineered for businesses that need to scale their storage capacity and performance dynamically as their data needs grow. At its core, the system leverages a new generation of RAID controllers and advanced features like Performance Tiering 2.0. This technology automatically responds to I/O changes in real-time, moving the hottest data to the fastest media, like SSDs, to optimize performance without manual intervention. This ensures that demanding workloads experience lower latency and higher throughput, directly improving application responsiveness and user productivity for a wide range of virtualized environments. The MSA 2060 is built for straightforward installation and management. Its 2U rack-mountable form factor allows for easy integration into standard server racks, making it an ideal choice for environments with limited space. Management is simplified through a new MSA Storage Management Utility (SMU v4), providing an intuitive interface for provisioning, monitoring, and maintenance tasks. The system's design allows for flexible growth, supporting a mix of SAS, SSD, and SAS Midline drives and the ability to add expansion enclosures.
