We plan to do a head swap to fas2750 and I see in docs the only supported SATA and SSD disks but we have internal SAS disks

my question is if that supported ?

 

thank haimkinar

Hi haimkinar,

 

Have you read this NetApp documentation https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems-upgrade/choose_controller_upgrade_procedure.html ?

 

There are so many different options, Vol moves are the easiest, but you can also convert internal disks from an older system into a disk shelf on your new system https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems-upgrade/upgrade/upgrade-optional-move-internal-storage.html

 

You are best to work with a NetApp partner or NetApp themselves as it can get confusing quickly.

What are you head swaping from/to? You only gave one model. Is this a node upgrade or are you upgrading to a 2750?

Oh. I'm sure it's fine. We have failed motherboards all the time.
