Is HP-MSA-2040 suitable for SVOD service with around 100 Terabyte of real time data short term and 1 petabyte long term? what kind of disk is recommended for the SAN?(considering throughput and size) SSD or SAS HDD (the file sizes are around 3 and 3.5 gigabyte) system has around 900.000 subscribers in long term but for now is has 20.000 subscribers.

security and upgrade ability along with FC is important.

I would not recommend that product for the scale and capacity you're seeing.

Performance would be fine, but the HP MSA2040 is a low-end SAN. It's better to step up to a more purpose-built solution that starts closer to your desired capacity.
