What this array is
This HPE MSA 2060 rack array ships as a new 2U appliance populated with twelve 20 TB SAS 12G midline drives and dual 10/25 GbE iSCSI controllers. It targets organisations that need a single, general-purpose block-storage platform with redundant 580W power supplies and certified support for Windows Server 2022, 2019, 2016, VMware vSphere 6.7, Red Hat 8 and SLES 15.
Who it suits and who it does not
Teams that want a ready-to-rack, capacity-focused system with up to twelve LFF bays and integrated short-range SFP+ transceivers will find it matches that brief. Buyers who need small-form-factor density, all-flash performance, direct-attached SAS host ports or a different operating-system certification should look at other platforms.
The spec that decides fit
The installed complement of twelve 20 TB SAS 7.2K LFF drives fixes the starting raw capacity and drive form factor; expansion beyond the base twelve bays requires additional enclosures.

Questions sur cet article
How often will the 12 x 20 TB SAS 7.2K LFF drives need replacement under normal workloads?
The 7.2K midline drives are rated for continuous operation; plan replacement when SMART alerts appear or after the vendor-rated MTBF interval for 20 TB SAS drives.
Which component reaches its limit first when the array runs sustained sequential writes?
The 12 Gb SAS links to the 12 installed drives saturate before the dual 10/25 GbE iSCSI controllers or the 580 W redundant supplies.
How much heat and noise do the dual 580 W supplies and 12 LFF drives produce in a 2U rack running all day?
Two redundant 580 W supplies and twelve 7.2K LFF drives generate typical midline-array heat; fan speed scales with inlet temperature, so noise rises under heavy load.
