Overview
The HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 30 Enclosure (hereafter referred to as "MSA30") is an Ultra320 SCSI disk drive storage enclosure. These enclosures deliver industry-leading data performance, availability, storage density, and upgradeability to meet customers' demanding and growing storage needs. The drive carrier is designed to support the fastest current Ultra320 hard drives on the same SCSI bus. The ease of upgrading the StorageWorks 4200 or StorageWorks 4300 Enclosure to the MSA30 proves to our customers that HP provides the lowest cost of ownership, as well as the fact that technology transitions can be smooth without disrupting critical business environments.

The MSA30 OVSM ships with a 60 day trial license of OpenView Storage Mirroring software. This product also includes two 76GB 15K rpm Ultra320 hard drives. When configured with ProLiant server, IT administrators can perform tasks such as OS Migration, disaster recovery and server consolidation. Administrators can move file servers to new servers without incurring downtime and while using available bandwidth. This solution allows customers to keep the target and host units in production mode while allowing the migration of data simultaneously. MSA30 OVSM will allow the administrator to manage bandwidth during the migration process to maximize I/O on critical servers during off-peak hours.

Product Highlights
Upgradability Upgrading a StorageWorks 4200/4300 Enclosure to a MSA30 is as easy as swapping out the I/O module and the EMU on the back of the unit. The unit must be powered down to replace the I/O unit.
NOTE: U320 performance requires a compatible U320 controller. This is noted in the product documentation. A U320 compatible EMU is also required for upgrades to U320 I/O modules.
