Two host ports per controller, shipped with SFPs. the MSA2000 controller
can run in either point-to-point or FCAL (loop). The default is FCAL which is
used in Direct Connect, particularly with two controllers. The PtP (fabric)
mode is used with almost all switches.

Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) enterprise-class drives designed for high volume,
24x7 usage. Serial-ATA (SATA) are usually reserved for archival of data as
they are both relatively inexpensive and are available in very large capacities.
The MSA2000 family of arrays can accommodate both SAS and SATA drives
within the same enclosure making it ideal to have both business-critical, high
activity files on SAS drives while using snapshot or clone capability to keep
back-up data on the less expensive drives.
SAS drive performance can be approximately 30%greater than SATA
performance on sequential host IO. SAS performance excels in sequential
lower latency response time and random IO per second transaction
performance due to higher rpm disk speeds yielding lower seek times. SAS
random performance is greater than 2x SATA.

NOTE: MSA2 3.5" Large Form Factor (LFF) drives are for use only in the

In addition to the usual RAID levels, the MSA2000 family features several
important additional levels. RAID 6 is the highest level of RAID protection. It
allocates two sets of parity data across drives and allows simultaneous write
