HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 1500 cs 2U Fibre Channel SAN Attach Controller Shelf - hard drive array

• Manufacturer: HP
• Part number: AD510A
• Description: The HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 1500 cs is a Fiber Channel SAN attached 2U controller shelf that connects to SCSI disk enclosures. This combination provides customers with a low cost, high capacity storage solution. This solution has been designed as a hardware foundation for which future solutions can be designed and implemented for investment protection. The MSA1500 is perfect for those customers looking for less expensive storage solutions using HP SATA enclosures to store data that doesn't require a high degree of I/O performance and/or is viewed as non-critical to business operations. If the business needs SCSI reliability then attach up-to-four SCSI enclosures for a raw capacity of 8.1 TB (using 56 - 146 GB SCSI disks). Mixing of SATA and SCSI enclosures are not supported behind the same controller at this time. The MSA1500 provides 2 Gb Fiber Channel to the hosts. The enclosure provides Ultra3 SCSI connection to the hard drive enclosures. By utilizing existing SCSI drive enclosures and MSA 1000 controller technology and integrating the use of Hewlett-Packard's lowest cost SATA hard drives and enclosures, the MSA1500 lowers the total cost of ownership and extends the customers hardware investments into the future. With lower cost of ownership, customers can now take advantage of tiered storage capabilities matching up data with appropriate levels of performance, availability and cost of data storage. The result is lower overall cost without giving up the needs of business applications. The MSA1500 is a member of the HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array family, delivering industry-leading technology to meet today's demanding and growing storage needs. These storage solutions offer the best price performance features for direct attach environments and entry-level and mid-range SAN environments. Each solution is designed to maximize transfer rates, reduce management costs, while driving rapid return on investment. The MSA1500 can be remotely managed by using management tools such as HP Insight Manager, Array Configuration Utility and the HP StorageWorks Fabric Switch Management Utility depending on the host's operating system. This product includes MSA1500 controller shelf (base configuration), and MSA30 single-channel SCSI disk enclosure (base configuration).
