NetApp DS460C LSI 9300-8E Dual Port HBA 2x X66030A SFF-8644 Cable 60x 8TB SAS HDD Rails

The NetApp DS460C is another enterprise-class disk shelf designed to work with NetApp's storage systems, specifically with the NetApp FAS and AFF (All Flash FAS) platforms. It is a high-performance, high-density solution that provides a robust and scalable storage architecture. The DS460C is particularly suited for environments that require substantial storage capacity with fast data access, such as in enterprise applications, databases, virtualization, and large-scale data analytics. Here are the key advantages of the NetApp DS460C: 1. High Storage Density (60 Drives in 4U) The DS460C provides an exceptional level of storage density by offering up to 60 drives in a 4U rack space. This allows organizations to significantly maximize their storage capacity while minimizing the physical rack space required. It is ideal for high-capacity environments where space efficiency is a critical concern. 2. All-Flash and Hybrid Storage Options The DS460C is designed to support all-flash and hybrid (SSD and HDD) configurations. The all-flash option provides low-latency, high-performance storage for mission-critical applications, while hybrid configurations offer a balance of cost and performance for less latency-sensitive workloads. This flexibility enables organizations to optimize their storage based on the specific needs of different applications. 3. Enterprise-Class Performance The DS460C supports SAS 12Gb/s data transfer rates, offering high throughput and low-latency performance. This is beneficial for demanding workloads such as virtualization, high-performance databases, and large-scale analytics. The shelf's high-speed capabilities ensure that applications can access data quickly, improving overall system performance. 4. Scalability The DS460C is easily scalable to meet growing data storage needs. You can connect multiple DS460C shelves to a single NetApp storage system, allowing for seamless capacity expansion. This makes it an ideal solution for organizations that anticipate rapid growth in their storage requirements. 5. Reduced Power Consumption and Cooling The DS460C is designed with energy efficiency in mind, featuring high-efficiency power supplies and redundant, hot-swappable cooling fans. These features help reduce power consumption and improve overall energy efficiency, which is important for organizations looking to lower operational costs and reduce their environmental footprint. 6. Data Protection and Redundancy Like other NetApp storage solutions, the DS460C integrates seamlessly with NetApp ONTAP software, offering advanced data protection features such as RAID, Snapshots, and Replication. These features provide high data availability and disaster recovery options to protect critical data in the event of hardware failure or site-level disasters. Additionally, the shelf has redundant components, including power supplies and cooling fans, to ensure continuous operation even if a component fails. 7. Hot-Swappable Components The DS460C allows for hot-swapping of drives, power supplies, and fans, which means components can be replaced without shutting down the system. This minimizes downtime and allows for easier maintenance and upgrades, ensuring that the system remains operational during maintenance tasks. 8. Optimized for NetApp Storage Systems The DS460C is specifically optimized for integration with NetApp FAS and AFF systems, ensuring seamless compatibility with NetApp’s management and data protection technologies. By using NetApp's Data ONTAP operating system, you can leverage a unified management platform for easier monitoring, administration, and automation of storage tasks. 9. Flexible Drive Types The DS460C supports both SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) and SSD (Solid-State Drive) types, giving organizations flexibility in their storage configurations. This allows them to tailor their storage setup based on the performance and cost requirements of different applications. For example, organizations can use SAS HDDs for bulk storage and SSDs for high-performance, low-latency workloads, such as virtualized environments, databases, or real-time analytics. 10. Non-Disruptive Operations The DS460C, when integrated with NetApp ONTAP, supports non-disruptive operations. This means you can perform routine maintenance tasks such as firmware upgrades, drive replacements, and hardware maintenance without impacting access to data. This is crucial for organizations that require high availability and cannot afford downtime. 11. Advanced Management and Monitoring The DS460C integrates with NetApp OnCommand System Manager and other NetApp management tools, offering powerful and intuitive capabilities for storage monitoring, reporting, and configuration management. These tools provide real-time insights into system performance, capacity usage, and health, allowing administrators to quickly identify and address potential issues before they impact performance. 12. Reliability and Durability The DS460C is built with high-quality components designed for durability and long-term reliability. It is engineered to meet the demands of enterprise environments, where downtime and failure can have significant business impact. 13. Future-Proofing As part of NetApp’s storage portfolio, the DS460C is designed to be forward-compatible with future hardware and software releases, ensuring that it remains a viable part of your storage infrastructure as technology evolves.
