FAS6210

The high end enterprise filer with a storage capacity of up to 2400 TB

The unified storage architecture of the FAS6210 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 operating system, which drives down the cost of administering storage.

FlexShare, a new standard feature of the Data ONTAP 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 ineffect immediately. The FAS6210 scales to 1200 drives, offering 2400 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.
