MSA 1040 Specification

Capacity Single Enclosure and Maximum Additional Drive Enclosures

LFF: 120 TB (single LFF array-head -using 12 x 10TB LFF SAS MDL drives) 480 TB (by adding 3 LFF Disk Enclosures behind LFF Array & using 10 TB LFF SAS MDL drives)

SFF: 43.2 TB (single SFF array-head – using 24 x 1.8TB SFF SAS drives) 178.2 TB (by adding 3 SFF Disk Enclosures behind SFF Array & using 1.8TB SFF SAS drives)

Pool Capacity

GL200: 169 TB (154 TiB)

GL210: 219 TB (200 TiB)

GL220: 329 TB (300 TiB)

GL220 with Large Pool Support: 562 TB (512 TiB)

NOTE: 1) The above pool capacities by firmware release apply to virtual storage only 2) The above capacities are usable capacity/pool. Each MSA system can support two pools. Therefore each MSA storage system can have double the usable capacity listed above

Cache

6 GB per controller

NOTE: 6GB cache includes Data (Read/Write) cache = 4GB and Metadata and System OS cache = 2GB

Total LUNs (LUN size are dependent of the storage architecture: Linear vs. Virtualized)

size: 140TB (128TiB) Thin Provisioning allows you to create the LUNs independent of the physical storage
