Product Description
The HP C8R14AC2 is a high-performance, 2U rack-mountable disk enclosure chassis specifically engineered to complement the HP MSA 2040 storage system. This controllerless chassis is designed to house up to twenty-four 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF) SAS or SATA hard disk drives, offering a substantial foundation for building out significant storage capacity. Its primary function is to provide a scalable and cost-effective solution for organizations that need to expand their storage infrastructure. By offering a dedicated chassis for drives, it allows for flexible configurations and the ability to tailor storage solutions precisely to workload requirements. The absence of integrated controllers means that management and data pathing are handled by the connected MSA 2040 controllers, simplifying the chassis design and focusing on raw storage density. This enclosure is an integral part of a modular storage architecture, enabling businesses to grow their storage footprint incrementally as demands increase. It is built with the reliability and performance expected from HP enterprise-grade hardware, making it suitable for demanding applications, data archiving, and tiered storage strategies. The C8R14AC2 chassis is a key component for achieving high-density storage deployments within the HP storage ecosystem.
