• Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver exceptional performance for applications requiring high random read IOPs performance.
• Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) enterprise-class drives are designed for high demand, 24x7 usage.
• SAS Midline drives are usually reserved for archival of data as they are relatively inexpensive and are available in very large capacities.

Optional Disk Enclosures

Just as the user has a choice of chassis for the array enclosure (LFF or SFF drive bays), so also do they have a choice of expansion disk enclosures accommodating either drive size.  All of the SFF and LFF disk enclosures can be hot-added to an operating array. SFF and LFF array heads enclosures and Disk Enclosures can be mixed without limitations.

The MSA 2040 storage systems have supported various SFF and LFF disk enclosures over time.  The latest disk enclosures to be supported on the MSA 2040 platform are the MSA 2050 SFF Disk Enclosure and the MSA 2050 LFF Disk Enclosures.   The MSA 2050 SFF and LFF enclosures can be added to existing MSA 2040 storage systems for expansion disk capacity.  The MSA 2050 SFF and LFF disk enclosures can be intermixed with the D2700 SFF disk enclosure and/or the MSA 2040 LFF disk enclosure.

• Users may configure an MSA 2042 SFF array enclosure with LFF MSA 2040 3.5-inch disk enclosures. This is an excellent option for a configuration that supports high-speed SFF SSDs or fast SFF enterprise-class SAS drives in the array enclosure, combined with economical LFF drives staged for archival purposes, all in the same array.

Disk Group

A Disk Group is a collection of disks in a given redundancy mode (RAID 1, 5, 6, 10, 50). It is equivalent to a Vdisk in Linear Storage and utilizes the same proven fault tolerant technology used by Linear Storage. Disk Group RAID level and size can be created based on performance and/or capacity requirements. With GL200 or newer firmware multiple Disk Groups can be allocated into a Storage Pool for use with the Virtual Storage features

LUNs

The MSA 2042 arrays support 512 volumes and up to 512 snapshots in a system. All of these volumes can be mapped to LUNs. Maximum LUN sizes up to 140TB (128 TiB), the LUN capacity is size are dependent on the storage architecture: Linear vs. Virtualized.  Thin Provisioning allows the user to create the LUNs independent of the physical storage

Storage Pools

Storage Pools are comprised of one or more Disk Groups. LUNs are no longer be restricted to a single Vdisk as with Linear Storage. A volume’s data on a given LUN can now span all disk drives in a pool.   When capacity is added to a system, users will benefit from the performance of all spindles in that pool.

The MSA 2042 supports large, flexible Volumes with sizes up to 128TiB and facilitates seamless capacity expansion. As volumes are expanded data automatically reflows to balance capacity utilization on all drives.

RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 50

In addition to the usual RAID levels, the MSA 2042 features several important additional levels. RAID 6 offers the highest level of RAID protection. It allocates two sets of parity data across drives and allows simultaneous write operations. It can withstand two simultaneous drive failures without downtime or data loss. RAID 10 is mirroring and striping without parity and allows large Disk Groups to be created with high performance and mirroring for fault tolerance. RAID 50 combines the block striping and parity of RAID 5 with the straight block striping of RAID 0, yielding higher performance than RAID 5 through the addition of RAID 0, particularly during writes.

Performance

The performance figures provided here are for reference as many variables exist between array configurations, workloads, hard drive types, disk group setup parameters and host system setup.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise has traditionally published a set of end-to-end MSA performance specifications which feed into HPE Sizer tools which are based on conservative real-world configurations. For consistency, the MSA 2040 performance numbers have been documented in both Benchmark and End-to-End Performance tables. Configuration details are provided for both test scenarios. These numbers are preliminary and subject to change without notice.
