NetApp Disk Shelves and Storage Media
AFF and FAS systems
Step up to enterprise-grade infrastructure with disk shelves and storage media specifically designed for NetApp AFF and FAS systems.
Key Benefits
Disk shelves and storage media specifically designed for NetApp AFF and FAS systems help deliver the performance, resiliency, and flexibility your digital transformation needs.
Gain performance and capacity at every level
Explore a full range of disk shelves and storage media (SSD and HDD) to support your diverse business and application demands. These disk shelves are supported on AFF and FAS systems.
Realize enterprise-class resiliency
Keep constant access to your data. Hardware redundancy, NetApp RAID-DP and RAID-TEC for superior data protection, and Maintenance Center for advanced error recovery help make sure your data is always available.
Respond flexibly to business demands
Gain the flexibility you need with support for different shelves and media within a cluster—for example, AFF with SSDs and FAS with HDDs and SSDs. Max out your IT investment with support for multiple capacity points, types, and generations of shelves and media on your AFF and FAS systems. Focus on business—not technology issues.
Gain flexibility
Leverage NetApp drives and disk shelves across the ONTAP portfolio.
Optimize for performance and capacity
Choose the media to optimize your storage for performance and capacity, leveraging SSD and HDD.
Strengthen security
Enhance physical data security. Prevent unauthorized data access.
