Thanks a lot. You said HP is not a good solution for storage node. What is the 
alternative? Which hardware model is better?Thanks.

 Definitely HBA mode.

In my opinion, it is good to use in a lab, but not for production.
Unfortunately, I have had bad experiences with p420 controllers. These 
controllers had problems with internal (controller) restarts under high 
workloads, which resulted in problems with Ceph. A firmware update helped, but 
for a long time, we haven't used HP on Ceph clusters. Sometimes they are used 
as compute nodes, but another problem we've had is spontaneous node restarts 
during soft RAID 1 MD sync (also under high workloads). Many controllers had to 
be replaced during the warranty period.

BR,
Sebastian
