PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
HPE MSA 2060 SFF 2x16Gb FC 4-port Controller 12x2.4TB HDD 4x16Gb SFP FC XCVR 29TB Storage Array (P79247-B25) - Local Warranty
Pre-configured HPE MSA 2060 SAN array, ready to deploy
The HPE MSA 2060 SFF 2x16Gb FC 4-port Controller 12x2.4TB HDD 4x16Gb SFP FC XCVR 29TB Storage Array (P79247-B25) is an HPE Smart Choice bundle: a dual-controller HPE MSA 2060 array shipped with twelve Enterprise 10K SAS HDD drives already installed and configured as one pool, so it can be racked, zoned and serving volumes on day one.
16Gb Fibre Channel host connectivity
Two active/active 4-port 16Gb Fibre Channel controllers give 8 host ports per array, with a 4-pack of HPE MSA 16Gb Short Wave FC SFP+ transceivers included for the first four ports. Automated tiering, snapshots and Remote Snap replication are built in.
Grow as you go
Add drives to the free bays or attach HPE MSA 2060 expansion enclosures as capacity needs grow; the array scales to 240 SFF or 120 LFF drives without replacing the controllers.
