The Smart Array
Advantage
HP's innovative design and integration work of the Smart Array family of products creates customer value
that is unmatched in the industry. Use of Smart Array products across multiple applications results in a
much lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) than any other server storage RAID product. The HP Smart Array
family brings an unparalleled return on investment through:
Data Compatibility
among all models of Smart Array controllers allows simple and easy upgrades any
time needs for higher performance, capacity, and availability increase. Even successive generations of
Smart Array controllers understand the data format of other Smart Array Controllers.
Consistent Configuration and Management Tools
. All Smart Array products utilize a standard set of
management and utility software. These tools minimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by reducing training
requirements and technical expertise necessary to install and maintain the HP server storage.
Universal Hard Drive
form factor is for use across multiple HP servers, disk enclosures and storage
systems. With compatibility across many enterprise platforms, you are free to deploy and re-deploy these
drives to quickly deliver increased storage capacity, migrate data between systems, and easily manage
spare drives.
Pre-Failure Warranty
means HP Insight Manager not only reports when a drive is going to fail but allows
replacement of failing drives prior to actual failure. For complete details, consult the HP Support Center or
refer to your HP Server documentation.
