Your customer’s mission • Reduce infrastructure requirements (and costs) instead of adding to them • Reduce or eliminate the need for more IT resource time © 2006 Micro. Age

Top five storage roadblocks Runaway costs – Need to meet rising data volume needs without increasing management overhead Complicated installation and deployment – Can be time-consuming, labour-intensive, with too much downtime Manageability – Too many servers, too much data, too many other priorities Sluggish network – Data volume overload reduces system responsiveness Business risk – Need to simplify safeguarding or archived business-critical information © 2006 Micro.

Customer Impact of the MSA 2000 family Customer Problem What they do today Business/IT • A: Buy more servers to have more DAS Storage needs growing exponentially How the MSA 2000 solves the problem & adds business value • A: Provides a choice of highperformance reasonably priced shared storage/SAN solutions • B: Poor return on investment with stranded capacity and high management costs of DAS • B: Gives the choice of Fibre Channel, i. SCSI, or SAS for attaching to hosts • C: Expensive outsourcing sometimes sought as an answer • C: Allows the user to start with a very small configuration and grow modularly as they need. The new MSA 2000 G 2 supports even more total storage than before • D: Contrary to good business practices, risky deletion of older files to make space • D: Built on a long term relationship with products from a single source that the customer can count on being available for extended periods Why now with HP? Differentiators… • A: One source – servers and storage together, one support organization • B: Thousands of trained and certified resellers • C: Economies of scale allow for an extremely competitive low cost • D: More experience in the entry-level SAN segment translates to HP being able to provide the most suitable products for these needs Position the MSA 2000 family as the ideal family of Arrays for the entry-level storage due to its unsurpassed flexibility of host connect choices, appropriate drive types, scalability, and ease of use – all at highly affordable total costs © 2006 Micro.
