NetApp 300 GB 15000 RPM FC drive

This NetApp drive delivers 300 GB of storage at 15000 RPM over a 4 Gb Fibre Channel interface. It ships mounted in a tray for direct insertion into DS14, DS14 Mk2 and DS14 Mk4 FC disk shelves. The unit is new and intended for NetApp FAS and F-series storage systems.

4 Gb Fibre Channel interface

The single specification that determines fit is the 4 Gb Fibre Channel connection. Only shelves and controllers that present a 4 Gb FC back-end will recognise and use this drive. Systems requiring a different speed or protocol cannot accept it.

300 GB capacity for high-speed tiers

The 300 GB capacity suits performance tiers that prioritise low latency and high IOPS over raw capacity. It handles transaction logs, database indexes and virtual-machine boot volumes comfortably. Workloads needing multi-terabyte sequential space will exhaust this drive quickly.

Questions about this item

What does the 300 GB capacity and 15,000 RPM speed deliver in a DS14 shelf?

The drive provides 300 GB of raw storage with 15,000 RPM spindle speed for low-latency access in NetApp DS14, DS14 Mk2 or DS14 Mk4 FC shelves.

How does the 4 Gb Fibre Channel interface limit performance in these systems?

The 4 Gb FC interface sets the maximum link rate between the drive and the controller, constraining peak transfer speed to that generation's signalling rate.

Will the included tray fit an FAS2040 or FAS880 chassis?

The tray is designed for DS14-series shelves used with platforms including FAS2040 and FAS880, matching the supplier's listed compatible systems.
