Description

NETAPP DS4246 24 BAY 3.5'' LFF STORAGE ARRAY - Configure To Order

The NetApp DS4246 is a high-density, enterprise-class disk shelf designed for use with NetApp storage systems. It is designed to provide additional storage capacity to NetApp FAS and AFF systems. The DS4246 supports a variety of use cases, from expanding capacity to providing high availability and data protection. Below are some of the key advantages of the NetApp DS4246:

1. High Storage Density

The DS4246 offers a high-density design, supporting up to 24 SAS or NL-SAS drives in a 2U form factor. This helps maximize the storage capacity in limited rack space, making it ideal for environments where space is a premium.

2. Scalability

The DS4246 is highly scalable, allowing you to easily expand your storage capacity as your data grows. You can connect multiple DS4246 shelves to a single NetApp storage system, allowing for massive growth without disrupting operations.

3. High Performance The DS4246 supports SAS 12Gb/s data transfer rates, providing excellent performance for applications that require high throughput. This is beneficial for workloads like large databases, virtualization, and analytics.

4. Efficient Power and Cooling The shelf includes redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and cooling fans to ensure optimal performance while minimizing downtime. This design helps ensure continuous operation even in the event of a power or cooling failure.

5. Data Protection The DS4246 supports NetApp's Data ONTAP software, which offers advanced data protection features like RAID configurations, snapshots, replication, and more. This provides a layer of data protection, ensuring that your data is safe and recoverable in the event of hardware failure or disaster.

6. Compatibility The DS4246 is compatible with a wide range of NetApp storage systems, including both FAS and AFF (All Flash FAS) systems. This makes it a versatile solution for a variety of NetApp environments, from hybrid to all-flash storage setups.

7. Low Latency and High Availability The DS4246 is designed with high availability in mind. It has dual redundant controllers and can be configured for non-disruptive data access, minimizing downtime during maintenance or hardware failure.

8. Cost Efficiency The DS4246 provides a cost-effective way to expand storage capacity, particularly in environments that need a balance of performance and capacity. The use of NL-SAS drives in particular can offer a lower-cost alternative to SSD-based storage, without sacrificing too much in terms of performance.

9. Hot-Swappable Drives Drives within the DS4246 are hot-swappable, meaning they can be replaced without taking the system offline. This enhances uptime and allows for easy maintenance and upgrades.

10. Flexibility in Drive Types The DS4246 supports both SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) and NL-SAS (Nearline SAS) drives, giving you flexibility in terms of performance and cost. For example, you can mix high-performance SAS drives for mission-critical applications with NL-SAS drives for less demanding workloads, optimizing both cost and performance.

11. Efficient Management Integration with NetApp OnCommand System Manager and other NetApp management tools allows for simplified management, monitoring, and reporting. The tools provide a unified view of your storage environment, making it easier to manage large and complex storage configurations.

12. Redundancy and Reliability

The DS4246 offers full redundancy for key components such as power supplies and cooling fans, ensuring that your system remains operational even if a component fails. This is a crucial feature for environments that cannot afford downtime, such as mission-critical applications.

13. Environmental Sustainability

The DS4246 is designed to be energy-efficient, helping reduce power consumption and operating costs. It also features efficient cooling mechanisms to maintain optimal performance while minimizing heat generation.

14. Future-Proofing

As part of NetApp's enterprise storage solutions, the DS4246 is designed to work with future upgrades to NetApp systems, ensuring that your investment remains relevant and functional over time.
