Two host ports per controller, shipped with SFPs. the MSA2000fc G2 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 or archival data on the less expensive drives.
For investment protection, the MSA2300fc G2 controller will support single
