The HPE MSA 1040 Storage is designed for entry-level market needs and features 8Gb Fibre Channel, 12 Gb SAS, 1GbE, and 10GbE iSCSI at previously unattainable entry price points. The array allows users to take advantage of the latest storage technologies in simple and efficient ways by providing a good balance between performance and budget resulting in a highly favorable $/GB return on their investment.
Entry consolidation and virtualization initiatives are now well within your budgetary reach. The MSA 1040 offers many MSA 2040 features but at a more affordable entry price point. ProLiant and Blade Systems administrators as well as IT generalists will find storage management tasks simple and intuitive with MSA.
The MSA 1040 Arrays are designed to allow an installation to begin with a smaller capacity and be able to grow gradually as needed. The flexibility of SAS or SAS MDL drives technology, form factors, sizes, speeds, and costs per GB allows a system to easily fit into almost any budget.
The MSA 1040 arrays come integrated with a web browser and CLI-based software for storage and RAID management, setup, configuration, and troubleshooting. This reduces the cost of ownership by reducing the training and technical expertise necessary to install and maintain your HPE storage solution.
