NetApp has launched two new modular disk arrays designed to let companies gradually build enterprise-class storage solutions from smaller devices. Designed for both network addressed storage (NAS) and storage area network (SAN) environments, the FAS3400 and V3040 combine 4Gbit/s Fibre Channel (FC) and iSCSI connectivity, and can accommodate up to 252 disk drives.
“You can get pretty much the same performance levels out of most applications [such as Oracle, SAP and MS Exchange] from a scalable mid-range disk array as you can from larger big-iron alternatives, then go from smaller to larger solutions without migrating the data or changing the software platform,” said NetApp EMEA product marketing manager John Rollason.
