HPE 218231-B22 RAID Controller Computer Component

HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 1000
2Gb Fibre Channel storage system for entry level to mid-range Storage Area Network

Performance
– The msa1000 and its components have been designed using the latest industry standard 2 Gb interconnects and Fibre Channel technology. Performance tests indicate a data transmission rate of over 30, 000 IOPS and bandwidth of up to 200 MB per second. (Single msa1000 Controller)

Modular Chassis
– The modular design of the MSA1000 cabinet supports up to fourteen 1" Universal hard drives, redundant controllers, 2Gb/s Fabric Switches, fans and power supplies in a 4U rackmount cabinet.

Scalability
– The msa1000 cabinet scales to 2.0 TB, using fourteen, 146 GB, 1” HP Universal hard drives. By simply adding additional StorageWorks 4200/4300 Enclosures (two enclosures max), the msa1000 scales to 6.0 TB, using forty-two, 146 GB, 1” HP Universal hard drives – all within 10U of rack space.

MSA Hub 2/3
– The optional MSA Hub 2/3, to be installed within the msa1000, offers 2 Gb performance. With two ports accessible by the user, the msa hub 2/3 is the ideal interconnect for low-cost 2-node clustering or simple attaching two servers. A second msa hub 2/3 can be installed for redundancy. This hub ships with two SFPs included

MSA SAN switch 2/8
- The optional MSA SAN switch 2/8 can also be installed within the msa1000. With seven ports accessible by the user, the MSA SAN switch 2/8 is the ideal interconnect for cost effective multiple clusters or nodes or connection to other hp SAN switches from the hp interconnect family of switches. A second MSA SAN switch 2/8 can be installed for redundancy. This switch ships with four SFPs included.

Hot Plug Expansion and Replacement Support
– The msa1000 supports hot plug expansion and replacement of hard drives, redundant controllers, fabric switches or hubs for simple, fast installation and maintenance. Fans and power supplies are also hot plug replaceable

Advanced Data Guarding (RAID ADG) Fault Tolerance
– This is the highest level of fault tolerance. It allocates two sets of parity data across drives and allows simultaneous write operations. This level of fault tolerance can withstand two simultaneous drive failures without downtime or data loss.
