Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has announced enhancements to its HPE MSA Storage family to help customers with limited budgets harness content and accelerate applications.

HPE MSA Storage options enable affordable dual-controller hybrid flash array from major vendors and now also include solid state drive (SSD) support for the HPE MSA 1040. This expanded support for SSDs results in additional hybrid flash configurations to deliver performance and latency-optimised storage to accelerate business responsiveness. This was previously only available under the MSA 2040 product.

Other enhancements include: advanced storage virtualisation capabilities such as thin provisioning, enhanced snapshot services, wide-striping and flash-based acceleration; reduced latency for read cache and Performance Tiering; and lower storage costs through MSA’s Archive Tiering capabilities, which increases the cost-effectiveness of Nearline SAS hard disk drives (HDDs) by automatically placing data in the appropriate storage tier.
