The HPE R0Q74B MSA 2060 16Gb FC SFF Storage system delivers high-availability enterprise storage with dual active-active controllers and 4 x 16Gb Fibre Channel host ports—providing redundant, load-balanced connectivity for mission-critical workloads. This 2U rack-mount storage array is built on HPE's proven MSA 2060 platform and accommodates 24 SFF (2.5-inch) drive bays in its base configuration, with the ability to scale to 72 SFF drives by adding up to 2 expansion enclosures. The system supports SAS SSD, SAS HDD, and SATA HDD options, enabling organizations to balance performance and cost while leveraging automated tiering across Performance and Standard tiers, plus an optional Read Cache SSD tier for optimized I/O response times.
Storage architects and IT procurement teams select the HPE MSA 2060 when they require a mid-range, entry-to-mid-market SAN solution with proven reliability and flexible scaling. The R0Q74B part number suits environments running VMware vSphere, Microsoft Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise, or Oracle Linux. Built-in data services—including inline compression, volume snapshots, and remote snap asynchronous replication—reduce storage overhead and enable rapid recovery scenarios. Dual redundant hot-swap power supplies and the dual-controller design eliminate single points of failure, while the browser-based HPE Storage Management Utility (SMU) simplifies day-to-day administration and monitoring across distributed data centers.
Organizations deploying the HPE R0Q74B benefit from enterprise-grade reliability without overprovisioning capacity or complexity. The mini-SAS HD expansion connectivity allows seamless growth as storage demands increase.
