Customer Benefits
The HP StorageWorks 2000 Modular Smart Array family manages growing storage requirements across multiple HP
ProLiant servers for customers who need a centralized dedicated storage solution for applications. Shared storage
allows for controlled, cost-effective growth and increased protection of data.
Its ease of management allows a department or small company to effectively handle growing storage requirements
with a minimum of complexity.
The MSA2000sa G2 extends the benefits of shared storage resources to first time implementers on a tight budget
Depending on the model chosen, the modular design allows the user to start relatively small but supports future
growth to hundreds of users and up to 27 TB of LFF SAS or 60 TB of LFF SATA storage, or 29.7 TB of SFF SAS or
24.7 TB of SFF SATA storage.
The optional controller-based snapshot and clone capability as part of the MSA2000 family allows the smaller
departmental user or company to implement functionality once only available to much larger firms with expensive
arrays.
