Life is good here at NetApp.  We have just been ranked #3 – World’s Best Multinational Workplaces by the Great Place to Work Institute. I have been here for over 5 years and couldn’t be more proud.

The newest member of the NetApp® storage system family has just arrived.  Be sure to see what the buzz is about in the FAS2240 article, where we documented all the technical details for you.  In our Be the Match story, see how technology is helping to save lives and how you can contribute to a great cause.

FAS2240: An Inside Look

Steven Miller, Senior Technical Director and Platform Architect
Our new entry-level system helps you start right, keep it simple, and grow smart. A full HA configuration fits in the space of a single disk shelf and converts to a disk shelf when it’s time to upgrade.
   
High-speed network options, triple the performance, and rugged design make the FAS2240 perfect for space-limited  environments.

Upgrade Your Storage Performance
Brian Mitchell, Geek ONTAP
Organizations don't have to factor-in costly data migrations when they "outgrow" their storage system. Rather, it’s a simple (in-place) upgrade.
