Get advanced capabilities in a midrange storage system and easily respond to future expansion

THE CHALLENGE
There is an ongoing challenge to efficiently meet the growing storage needs of business applications such as messaging, collaboration, file services, Web, office productivity, databases, and more. What is needed is storage that is both efficient and flexible with high-end availability and performance to effectively meet the challenges of virtualized and traditional IT environments.

THE SOLUTION
With the NetApp FAS3200 series you can cost-effectively meet the storage needs of business applications in both virtual and traditional environments. Handle today’s workloads with industry-leading storage efficiency through the NetApp unified architecture running our Data ONTAP® storage operating system. Consolidate diverse data sets plus be ready to respond to change more easily and non-disruptively with the extra PCIe slots, high performance, and enterprise-class availability of the FAS3200 series.
Midsize environments can gain high-end benefits without the budget or space required to support frame-array-class systems. Regional data centers, replicated sites, and departmental systems that need full-featured, yet efficient, storage with advanced availability and performance capabilities can benefit too.
The FAS3200 series spans three models to enable you to tailor-fit a solution that’s right for your environment: FAS3210, FAS3240, and FAS3270. Our systems are simple to install, provision, and upgrade to meet your needs. Plus you can maximize productivity with our common suite of application-aware management software. The FAS3200 systems, with the best value for mixed workloads, can give you an edge that other midrange storage platforms simply cannot match.

LOWER COSTS WITH OUR HIGHLY EFFICIENT SYSTEMS
NetApp delivers a truly unified storage architecture that uses a single platform with common software and processes across all tiers of storage. You can consolidate your diverse workloads with multi-protocol support and also benefit from integrated data protection, one operating system across the entire family, and heterogeneous disk array support with V-series. This helps you maximize the efficiency of your virtual servers by delivering storage when and where it’s needed.
What’s more, common management across our unified storage architecture assists in consolidation of diverse data sets and data-in-place controller upgrades to more powerful FAS systems. This lowers your administrative costs and makes it easier for you to deploy new capabilities across your enterprise.
If you are looking to dramatically decrease your consumption of space, powers, and cooling, then deploy your FAS3200 series system with our DS2246 disk shelf. This leading-edge disk shelf features the latest SAS technology using small-form-factor SAS 2.5” disk drives capable of doubling capacity per rack unit, conserving your valuable data center resources.

INCREASE FLEXIBILITY
The FAS3200 series scales to nearly 2PB of versatile storage that adapts readily to your growing storage demands. If your environment needs extra connectivity, the expanded I/O configurations of the FAS3240 and FAS3270 models significantly add to the number of PCIe expansion slots available. Moreover, all FAS3200 systems support Data ONTAP in both standard and cluster modes, providing you with the flexibility of up to 24 nodes.

GET PROVEN AVAILABILITY AND PERFORMANCE
The FAS3200 series is built on the proven enterprise-class availability of the NetApp storage infrastructure. The FAS3200 models leverage from high-end systems by introducing features such as Alternate Control Path (ACP) and service processor. These enhance our already highly available architecture by enabling additional diagnostics and nondisruptive recovery.
