HPE MSA 2062 Rack Storage Array

The HPE MSA 2062 is a 2U rack storage array designed for general-purpose server workloads. It ships with twelve 2.4TB hard drives and two 1.92TB SAS SSDs installed. The system provides 28.8TB of raw capacity out of the box.

Dual 16 Gb Fibre Channel Controllers

Dual 16 Gb Fibre Channel 4-port controllers and a 4-pack of short-wave SFP+ transceivers are included. This connectivity enables direct host attachment or switch-based SAN integration. The hardware supports block-level access for applications requiring consistent throughput.

Capacity Headroom and Expansion Limits

The base array holds up to 24 SFF drives, allowing growth beyond the factory 28.8TB. Maximum raw capacity reaches 1.77 PB with all SFF drives or 2.7 PB when mixing SFF and LFF enclosures. Workloads exceeding these limits will require additional arrays.

Highlights

  • 8TB total capacity with 12 x 2.4TB drives and 2 x 1.92TB SAS SSDs installed
  • Dual 16 Gb Fibre Channel 4-port controllers deliver high-throughput connectivity
  • 2U rack form factor fits dense data-centre deployments
  • Expandable to 24 SFF drives per base array for future growth

Questions about this item

When will the 12 x 2.4TB SAS drives or the 2 x 1.92TB SAS SSDs need replacement?

The 12 x 2.4TB SAS drives and 2 x 1.92TB SAS SSDs are mechanical and solid-state components that will require replacement after their rated endurance or if a SMART error is reported by the MSA 2062 controller.

Which limit appears first when the array runs at full 16 Gb Fibre Channel throughput all day?

The 16 Gb Fibre Channel 4-port controllers set the sustained bandwidth ceiling; the 24 SFF expansion bays and installed 28.8TB capacity will not saturate before the controller links do.

How much heat and power does the 2U chassis draw with all 12 HDDs and 2 SSDs spinning continuously?

The 2U rack enclosure houses 12 x 2.4TB SAS HDDs and 2 x 1.92TB SAS SSDs plus dual 16 Gb Fibre Channel controllers; power draw and thermal output scale with that full complement.
