S3T81A HPE MSA 2072 32Gb Fibre Channel SFF Storage +S3Y23A 32Gb SW FC SFP+

The S3T81A is the high-performance flagship of the HPE MSA Gen7 portfolio, representing the ultimate fusion of ultra-high-speed connectivity and pre-configured flash acceleration. This premium bundle pairs the HPE MSA 2072 SFF array—which includes two integrated SAS SSDs and the full Advanced Data Services software suite—with the S3Y23A 32Gb Fibre Channel transceiver kit. Specifically designed for businesses that cannot afford to compromise on latency, this system is "Flash-First" from day one. It delivers a 32Gb SAN data path that ensures your most intensive virtualized clusters and real-time database applications are never limited by network bandwidth, providing a truly future-proof storage foundation.

• Next-Level Throughput: The 32Gb FC fabric, enabled by the S3Y23A optics, doubles the potential transfer speeds of 16Gb systems, effectively eliminating data "traffic jams" during peak I/O cycles.

• Instant Hybrid Tiering: With the pre-installed SSDs and the active tiering license, the system automatically moves "hot" application data to the flash tier every few milliseconds, ensuring maximum responsiveness without manual tuning.

• Ultra-Low Latency Signal: The Gen7 controller architecture is optimized to handle the high IOPS provided by the internal SSDs, while the 32Gb connection ensures that this performance is delivered to the host servers with near-zero delay.

• Rapid-Response Data Guard: Includes MSA-DP+ technology, which revolutionizes RAID protection by distributing spare capacity across all drives, allowing for disk rebuilds that are significantly faster than traditional RAID 6.

• The "No-Guesswork" Performance SKU: By bundling the highest-speed transceivers, the flash-tier SSDs, and the premium software licenses into one part number, HPE provides a guaranteed compatible, high-performance solution.

• Future-Proof Storage ROI: Deploying 32Gb connectivity today ensures your storage infrastructure is ready for the next generation of high-speed servers and 100Gb/s network fabrics.

• Maximized IT Productivity: The automated tiering and health-monitoring features allow IT generalists to manage an elite SAN environment with the same ease as a basic server, freeing up resources for core business projects.

• Elite Business Continuity: Standardized advanced snapshots and remote replication, paired with the reliability of genuine HPE hardware, provide a robust safety net for your organization's most critical digital assets.
