For a single Windows Server appliance suitable for installing Veeam Backup & Replication Server and a new local Veeam Data Repository, the best option is HPE StoreEasy 1660. HPE StoreEasy 1660 is designed to handle file storage and application hosting, making it capable of supporting Veeam Backup & Replication efficiently. Other options mentioned, such as HPE SimpliVity, HPE MSA 2060 Gen6, and HPE StoreOnce 3660, are either optimized for different use cases like hyper-converged infrastructure, storage arrays, or backup and deduplication appliances, respectively, which do not fit the requirement of a single Windows Server appliance for this specific backup and repository task.
Sorry all, I relooked into this question. HPE StoreEasy 1660 is the one that you can install VBR directly on the appliance, while StoreOnce can't.
StoreEasy is optimized for file storage and collaboration rather than backup and deduplication tasks, making it less suitable for this scenario.
