About the HPE S1H48A - HPE MSA 2070 12Gb SAS SFF Storage

The HPE S1H48A — HPE MSA 2070 12Gb SAS SFF Storage — delivers dual-controller active-active redundancy with flexible host connectivity across 12Gb SAS, 1GbE iSCSI, 10GbE iSCSI, and 16Gb Fibre Channel interfaces (configuration varies by controller SKU). This 2U rack-mount system features 24 SFF drive bays supporting SAS SSDs, SAS HDDs, and Midline SAS HDDs in 2.5-inch form factor, delivering enterprise-class availability and performance for storage architects and IT procurement teams.

The HPE MSA 2070 combines mirrored read/write cache up to 8GB per controller with advanced data services including thin provisioning, automated performance tiering, snapshots, and volume copy capabilities. Remote snapshot replication to a second MSA array enables business continuity, while redundant hot-swap power supplies and cooling fans ensure uninterrupted operation. RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 support accommodates diverse workload requirements, and capacity scales seamlessly via HPE MSA expansion enclosures. Management integrates with HPE MSA Storage Management Utility (SMU), REST API, and HPE InfoSight for unified visibility and control.

Deployment Scenarios

  • Virtualized data centers running VMware vSphere with tiered SSD/HDD architectures for mixed workload consolidation
  • Microsoft Windows Server and Hyper-V environments requiring RAID-protected snapshots and remote replication
  • Linux infrastructure on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server with iSCSI block storage
  • Mid-market enterprises needing scalable capacity via expansion enclosures without controller replacement
  • Disaster recovery scenarios leveraging remote snapshot replication between two MSA arrays
