msa30 connection from proiant to enclosure

Does the MSA30 ship with the lc/lc multi mode fibre cable kit or do i need to order it separately?

I'm assuming that to conect my proliant to the MSA30 i need to order the HBA and the lc/lc calbe kit....

Is there anything else i need?

Esther,
the MSA30 is a disk drive enclosure. It has one or two VHDCI parallel SCSI interconnects.

Did you think about the MSA1000? This one does not come with fiber cables. I beleive there are 'starter kits' available that contain all necessary components.

We have looked at the MSA1000 but its overkill for what we need.

OK, according to the specifications the MSA30 SB comes with one and the MSA30 DB comes with two SCSI cables with VHDCI connectors at both ends. You need to order an appropriate adapter/ RAID controller card for your server if you don't have a free bus.
