The HP 60 Modular Smart Array enclosure is a 2U Serial Attach SCSI (SAS) disk drive storage enclosure supporting 3.5 inch SAS, Serial ATA (SATA) and SAS Midline (MDL) drives. This enclosure delivers industry-leading data performance, availability, storage density, and upgradeability to meet customers’ demanding and growing storage needs. This enclosure is designed to support 3.5 inch Universal SAS, SATA or SAS MDL hard drive form factors. The MSA60 enclosure supports direct attach storage (DAS) to HP ProLiant and HP Integrity Servers. The MSA60 supports the cascading of shelves in a 1+3 configuration to allow a maximum of 48 drives in an 8U configuration behind each of the two external ports on the HP Smart Array P800, the HP Smart Array E500, HP Smart Array P411 or the HP Smart Array P812 Controllers for a total of 96 drives in 8 enclosures (this single controller port incorporates four lanes for a total max throughput of 12Gb/s for SAS). On HP ProLiant servers Dual Domain support is available for the HP Smart Array P800 attached to a MSA60 with the addition of the HP Dual Domain I/O Module Option (AG779A). (Single initiator environment only). (NOTE: Smart Array P411 and P812 Controllers are supported on ProLiant servers only).
