Direct-Attach SAS Storage for Bandwidth Without a Fabric
When servers need shared block storage but you would rather not build out a Fibre Channel or iSCSI fabric, the HPE MSA 2060 12Gb SAS (R0Q78B) connects directly over SAS instead. Dual controllers and eight external 12Gb SAS ports give clustered hosts high-bandwidth, low-latency access, and 24 SFF bays let you populate the HDD or SSD mix you need. Browse the rest of our HPE storage in the Storage range.
It ships diskless, so capacity and performance are yours to size, and the 12Gb SAS interface keeps direct server-to-storage links simple where an Ethernet or FC switch fabric would be overkill.
