Manage your small and midrange business growing storage needs by deploying this low cost, flexible tiered storage system with up to 5.4TB SAS, 12TB SATA or SAS MDL (Midline) storage per enclosure. For small businesses, MSA60 is a stepping stone to simplify capacity expansion of HP ProLiant or HP Integrity server environments to external storage without having to make the full move to SAN or NAS, allowing you to buy what is needed today and purchase additional capacity as data storage needs grow, instead of making a large up-front investment. Add a second I/O Module and transition from single domain to dual domain for higher levels of redundancy and reliability reducing or eliminating single points of failure within your storage network. On ProLiant servers Dual Domain support is available for the SA P800 attached to a MSA60. On Integrity servers for HP-UX and OVMS environments the HP SC44Ge HBA adds support for Multi-Initiator JBOD Clusters.
