Today November 5, 2012, NetApp announced new additions to the FAS3200 Series midrange storage systems. Delivering more value than ever before, the new FAS3200 Series provides a significant performance and scalability boost as compared to previous models. The new FAS3220 system offers up to 80% more performance and twice the capacity of the FAS3210 system. The new FAS3250 provides up to 70% more performance and 20% more capacity than the FAS3240. What's more, these new systems are fully flash-optimized, supporting NetApp's entire end-to-end portfolio of Flash solutions. Flash Accel caches “hot” data in the server for extreme application performance needs, and Flash Cache and Flash Pools can both increase performance in the storage layer, and improve storage efficiency by enabling reductions in overall storage footprint and space requirements.
The new FAS3200 series serves as the optimal foundation for an agile data infrastructure, enabling business operations to run faster, scale further and be more efficient in use of storage. The clustered Data ONTAP on new FAS3200 series offers capabilities such as non-disruptive operations and seamless scaling to meet the ever changing requirements of today’s data driven environments. In addition, the V-series open storage controllers V3220 and V3250 extend the same values for your current storage investments in storage systems from major storage vendors.
