Description
Performance and Reliability
Performance and scalability refer to the ability of the HP K2R80A Modular SA 2040 SAS 6GBPS San Dual Controller LFF Storage Hard Drive Array to handle large amounts of data and maintain high levels of performance as the amount of data stored on the array increases.The HP K2R80A is designed to deliver high performance with its dual SAS 6Gbps controllers and support for LFF hard drives. It also provides scalability by allowing additional storage capacity to be added as needed through the use of LFF drive expansion enclosures.In terms of performance, the HP K2R80A can handle large data transfer rates and high IOPS (input/output operations per second) to support the demands of modern data center applications. The dual controllers provide redundancy and failover protection, ensuring that the array can continue to function even in the event of a controller failure.
Scalability means that the HP K2R80A can grow with your storage needs. This is accomplished by allowing you to add additional LFF drive enclosures as needed, increasing the overall storage capacity of the array without compromising performance. This allows the HP K2R80A to adapt to the changing storage requirements of your organization as it grows.
Storage Capacity
The HP K2R80A Modular SA 2040 SAS 6GBPS San Dual Controller LFF Storage Hard Drive Array has a storage capacity that can vary depending on the number and type of hard drives installed. The array supports LFF (large form factor) hard drives, which have a larger physical size and can store more data than smaller SFF (small form factor) drives.In terms of expansion options, the HP K2R80A allows you to add additional storage capacity by connecting LFF drive expansion enclosures. This allows you to increase the overall storage capacity of the array without compromising performance, making it easy to adapt to the changing storage requirements of your organization as it grows.
The HP K2R80A supports SAS 6Gbps hard drives. The maximum number of hard drives that can be installed on the array depends on the number of drive bays in the enclosure and the number of expansion enclosures connected to it.
The HP K2R80A also supports RAID (redundant array of independent disks) technology, which allows you to configure the hard drives in the array in different RAID levels to provide data protection and improve performance. RAID levels supported are RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, RAID 50 and RAID 60.
Data Protection and Security
Data protection and security are important features of the HP K2R80A Modular SA 2040 SAS 6GBPS San Dual Controller LFF Storage Hard Drive Array. The array provides several mechanisms to protect data stored on it and keep it secure.One key feature of the HP K2R80A is its support for RAID (redundant array of independent disks) technology. RAID allows you to configure the hard drives in the array in different RAID levels, which can provide data protection and improve performance. RAID levels supported are RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, RAID 50 and RAID 60. For example, RAID 1 provides mirroring, which creates a copy of the data on one drive to another, providing redundancy and protection against drive failure. RAID 5 and RAID 6, provide data protection against a single drive failure, RAID 10 and 50 and 60 provides protection against multiple drive failures, and RAID 0 provides striping for better performance.
The HP K2R80A also supports encryption of data at rest, which can help to protect data stored on the array from unauthorized access. Additionally, the array is designed to meet various security standards and regulations, such as HIPAA and PCI-DSS.
The HP K2R80A also provides secure remote management and monitoring, allowing administrators to access and manage the array remotely using secure protocols, such as HTTPS and SSH. This allows for remote monitoring and management of the array, and can help to prevent unauthorized access to the array.
