V-Series Open Storage Controllers
Expand your storage capabilities and increase your flexibility with NetApp V-Series while preserving investments in storage systems from major storage vendors.
V-Series can help you make the storage you already own more efficient and flexible. Our advanced data protection, data management, and efficiency features will transform your FC-SAN storage systems.
Dramatically Reduce Costs
Use NetApp deduplication and other storage efficiency features to reclaim capacity and reduce your rate of spending for new disk drives.Improve Data Protection
Replicate data between storage systems from different vendors for disaster recovery with our effective, affordable SnapMirror® software.Increase Flexibility
V-Series gives you native support for SAN and NAS protocols. Scale with V-Series by adding capacity to your current storage system or by attaching NetApp disk shelves.
Key Points:
- Build on your current storage investments and expand your capabilities with V-Series.
- Reduce spending for disk drives with deduplication and other storage efficiency features.
- Improve data protection with better backup and recovery as well as affordable, effective disaster recovery.
- Increase your flexibility with native support for SAN and NAS protocols.
