The HPE Q1J01B storage array represents a powerful, flexible, and enterprise-ready storage solution — ideal for businesses, remote offices, and data centers requiring high performance, reliability, and scalability. Built under the HPE MSA 2050 SAN line, Q1J01B brings together robust features that meet the demands of virtualization, database hosting, backups, and shared storage — without the complexity or overhead of larger SAN systems.
Performance & Flexibility to Match Workloads
The Q1J01B chassis is a 2U rack-mountable unit designed to accommodate up to 24 small form-factor (SFF) drives. This flexibility allows administrators to combine SSDs and SAS HDDs as needed — enabling configurations optimized for high performance, maximum capacity, or a balance of both. Whether the priority is fast I/O for virtual machines or large storage pools for backups and archival data, Q1J01B scales accordingly.
Thanks to dual storage controllers, redundant power supplies, and hot-swappable drive bays, the array provides enterprise-grade reliability. In the event of a component failure, the system can continue operating — ensuring business-critical services remain online. For companies that cannot afford downtime, these redundancy features make Q1J01B a dependable backbone for mission-critical applications.
Advanced Features Without Complexity
The Q1J01B is engineered to deliver more than raw storage. It supports a variety of RAID levels — such as RAID 1, 5, 6, and 10 — allowing administrators to choose the right balance of performance, capacity, and data protection. Its firmware offers easy management tools, making setup and maintenance straightforward even for teams without deep SAN experience. Automated tiering can preferentially place frequently accessed data on faster SSDs, while less critical data remains on cost-effective HDDs — optimizing performance without manual intervention.
For businesses expanding over time, the Q1J01B supports incremental growth. As storage needs increase, new drives or enclosures can be added without disrupting existing data. This makes it ideal for growing companies that want a future-proof storage system that evolves with their needs.
