About the HPE MSA 2100 Storage Array
The HPE MSA 2100 Storage Array delivers enterprise-grade data management through REST API, embedded GUI, and CLI interfaces that integrate seamlessly into existing hypervisor and orchestration environments. As a 2U rack-mount system with dual-controller active-active architecture, the HPE MSA 2100 (part number R7G17A) combines high availability with flexible connectivity—supporting iSCSI at 1GbE or 10GbE, as well as Fibre Channel at 8Gb or 16Gb speeds. The base enclosure provides 12 LFF or 24 SFF drive bays, with SAS 12Gb/s drives supporting both SAS SSD and SAS HDD configurations. Raw capacity scales to 1.4 PB when paired with additional HPE MSA expansion enclosures, while redundant hot-plug power supplies and fans ensure uninterrupted operation across the 10°C to 35°C operating temperature range.
Storage architects and IT procurement teams select the MSA 2100 for its advanced data services portfolio—including snapshots, volume copy, remote replication, thin provisioning, and automated tiering—combined with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10. The HPE Storage Management Utility (SMU) provides centralized control, while the REST API enables programmatic integration into modern infrastructure-as-code pipelines and cloud-native workflows. Organizations requiring scalable, protocol-agnostic block storage with proven reliability choose this platform to consolidate workloads and simplify capacity planning across mixed SSD and HDD environments.
The MSA 2100 is engineered to meet CE, FCC, UL, and RoHS compliance requirements, ensuring rapid deployment in regulated enterprise settings.
