16Gb Fibre Channel Shared Storage, Built for Performance
The HPE MSA 2070 (P76572-B25) is the 16Gb Fibre Channel configuration of HPE's Gen7 SAN array, delivering fast, low-latency shared storage to Fibre Channel server environments. With up to 24 HDD or SSD bays, clustering support, and full RAID, it accelerates application performance without the cost of high-end arrays. It is part of our HPE lineup in the broader Storage range.
MSA has led HPE ProLiant shared storage for nearly three decades, with over 600,000 arrays sold. This Gen7 platform brings up to 2X the performance of the prior generation and scales beyond 7 PB per array, while the 16Gb Fibre Channel controllers suit data centers standardized on an FC fabric.
