FAS3170

The high performance filer generation for midrange and high end storage solution

The unified storage architecture of the FAS3170 eliminates the need to deploy multiple systems to address requirements for block and file storage. The cost of hard disk drives can be cut in half by using SATA drives instead of Fibre Channel drives. Storage management is greatly simplified by the Data ONTAP 7G operating system,
which drives down the cost of administering storage.

FlexShare, a new standard feature of the Data ONTAP 7G operating system, ensures that critical workloads get priority service and consistent performance when the storage controller is operating at maximum load. When workload priorities change, FlexShare settings can be updated and in effect immediately. The FAS3170 scales to 840 drives, offering 840 terabytes of capacity per system. The model have extensive onboard Fibre Channel (FC) and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, which can be augmented using embedded PCI Express (PCIe) and PCI-X expansion slots, and integrated remote LAN management.
