About the HPE S1H44A - HPE MSA 2070 10/25GbE iSCSI SFF Storage

The HPE MSA 2070 10/25GbE iSCSI SFF Storage (part number S1H44A) brings enterprise-grade management integration directly into your hypervisor stack through VMware vCenter Plugin support, Microsoft VSS/VDS compatibility, and a comprehensive REST API for seamless orchestration. This dual active-active controller architecture ensures high availability while delivering sophisticated data services including automated tiering, snapshots, volume copy capabilities, and SSD read cache optimization—all manageable through HPE SMI-S, embedded GUI (MSA SMU), and programmatic interfaces that streamline deployment across virtualized environments.

Built as a 2U rack-mount enclosure, the HPE S1H44A accommodates up to 24 SFF (2.5-inch) drive bays in the base unit with support for expansion via HPE MSA 2060 SFF/LFF Disk Enclosures, enabling raw capacity scaling to 460.8 TB. The system supports SAS HDD, SAS SSD, and Midline SAS HDD types, with 4 GB of mirrored write cache per controller and dual 10/25GbE iSCSI ports (SFP28) on each controller for flexible host connectivity. For storage architects and IT procurement teams evaluating mid-market and enterprise SAN solutions, this platform combines redundant power supplies, dual controllers, and redundant fans with intelligent tiering to balance performance and capacity across mixed workloads. Operating reliably between 10°C and 35°C, the MSA 2070 delivers production-ready resilience without compromise.
