it all depends on the data ontap version and fas system you have. Please refer to the storage resilency document of FAS series you have.

Most limits are listed in Storage Management Guide. The only minimum limits I am aware of are

- You need at least 2 disks to build an aggregate

- There is minimum root volume size which is model dependent

- Flexvol cannot be smaller than approximately 20MB
