Description
High-Performance
The HPE Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN Dual Controller SFF Bundle is a high-performance storage array designed to meet the demands of modern data centers. It has 24 drive bays and is equipped with 24 900GB hard drives.
The “SFF” in the product name stands for “Small Form Factor,” which refers to the compact size of the drive bays. This makes the 2040 SAN a space-saving option for data centers that need to maximize their storage density.
The dual controller design provides redundancy and improved performance by allowing data to be processed by two controllers simultaneously. This helps ensure that the array can maintain high levels of performance even in the event of a controller failure.
The HPE Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN is designed for use with HPE’s C8R17A controllers, which provide advanced features such as data compression, deduplication, and snapshots. These features can help to optimize storage utilization, reduce costs, and improve data protection.
Advanced Data Protection
The C8R17A HP Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN Dual Controller Sff Bundle Hard Drive Array 24 BAY 24 X 900 GB is a storage solution that offers advanced data protection features to ensure the safety and reliability of stored data.
- Dual Controller: This storage array has two controllers that work in tandem to provide redundancy and increased performance. In the event of a failure in one controller, the other controller can take over and continue to provide access to data.
- Redundant Power Supplies: The C8R17A has dual power supplies that provide backup power in the event of a failure in one power supply. This ensures that data remains safe even if one of the power supplies fails.
- RAID: This storage array supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and 50. RAID helps protect data by using multiple hard drives to store data redundantly. This means that in the event of a hard drive failure, data can be reconstructed from the remaining drives.
- Snapshots: The C8R17A supports snapshots, which are point-in-time copies of data that can be used to restore data in the event of a disaster. This helps protect data against accidental deletion, corruption, or other types of data loss.
- Remote Replication: The C8R17A supports remote replication, which allows data to be replicated to a secondary storage array in a remote location. This helps protect data against site-wide disasters or other types of data loss.
In conclusion, the C8R17A HP Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN Dual Controller Sff Bundle Hard Drive Array 24 BAY 24 X 900 GB is a storage solution that offers advanced data protection features to ensure the safety and reliability of stored data.
Energy Efficient and Environmentally Friendly
The HP Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN Dual Controller Sff Bundle Hard Drive Array 24 BAY 24 X 900 GB is a high-performance storage solution that provides both energy efficiency and environmental friendliness.
Energy Efficiency: This system features a dual controller architecture that allows for efficient load balancing and reduced power consumption. The system also includes Energy Star certified components, such as high-efficiency power supplies and low-power drives. The use of high-capacity, high-performance drives reduces the number of spindles needed to store large amounts of data, thereby reducing the overall power consumption of the system.
Environmental Friendliness: The HP Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN is designed with environmentally responsible materials, including recyclable packaging and the use of lead-free components. The system is also designed to meet the European Union’s RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) directive, which restricts the use of hazardous substances in electronics. This helps to reduce the overall impact of electronic waste on the environment.
In conclusion, the HP Modular Smart Array 2040 SAN Dual Controller Sff Bundle Hard Drive Array 24 BAY 24 X 900 GB is a highly energy efficient and environmentally friendly storage solution that provides a balance of performance and sustainability.
