An optional second MSA20 disk array can be added to a VLS6100 by purchasing a VLS capacity
bundle. A VLS capacity bundle includes a disk array with twelve SATA disks and a capacity license
for the additional disk array.
Adding a second disk array doubles the VLS6100 storage capacity. Adding a second disk array also

You can also re-use an existing MSA20 disk array with twelve blank SATA disks of the same, supported

capacity license for the additional disk array (two licenses for each 750 GB disk) separately.
