NetApp V6000 Series

Use the NetApp V6000 series open storage controllers to handle your largest enterprise and technical applications in multiprotocol, multivendor storage environments.

Get advanced storage efficiency, data protection, and data management features while maintaining your current storage investments. NetApp V-Series open storage controllers let you manage disk arrays from EMC, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Hitachi Data Systems, and other major storage vendors as if they were NetApp® storage. The current generation of NetApp disk shelves can also be used with V-Series controllers, giving you more choice and flexibility for capacity expansion.

Dramatically increase your disk utilization and reclaim stranded capacity with thin provisioning and deduplication for primary storage, not just secondary storage.

Use NetApp Snapshot™ software, the original and most functional point-in-time copy technology, to protect your data with no performance impact and minimal consumption of storage space. Replicate data across your global network at high speeds simply, efficiently, and flexibly with SnapMirror® for disaster recovery.

Accelerate application development and testing by using our FlexClone® technology to instantly replicate data volumes and data sets as transparent, virtual copies. NetApp clones increase productivity and save storage space without compromising performance.

Take advantage of these features whether you use the V-Series to provide file services, to store block-based data, or both. Our V-Series controllers give you this flexibility with native support for FC SAN, FCoE, iSCSI, NFS, and CIFS protocols.
