Question
Your customer asks you to assist in designing a new cost effective storage solution. The solution will be used to store archive data. lt must be able to replicate point-in-time copy of data at the primary site to a remote site. The solution must provide block-level access and support Fibre Channel. There is very little rack space available at the primary site. Which solution meets the customer requirements?
Options
- AHP Storevirtual
- BHP EVA

Why each option
The customer requires a cost-effective, compact storage solution for archive data that supports block-level Fibre Channel access and remote point-in-time replication. HP MSA is an ideal choice as it provides these features at a lower cost and smaller footprint compared to enterprise-grade solutions.
HP StoreVirtual is software-defined storage, which, while flexible, may not be as directly aligned with the 'Fibre Channel' and 'cost-effective' for archive data as a dedicated MSA array.
HP EVA is an older mid-range storage solution that is generally more complex and less cost-effective for new deployments of simple archive storage compared to modern MSA arrays.
HP MSA (Modular Smart Array) is a cost-effective, compact entry-level to mid-range storage array that supports Fibre Channel for block-level access. It offers features like snapshots and remote replication to meet the requirement for point-in-time copies at a remote site, making it suitable for archive data while conserving rack space.
HP 3PAR StoreServ is an enterprise-class, high-end storage system, which is significantly more expensive and powerful than required for a cost-effective archive data solution with limited rack space.
