Decent price

Thanks to know-how and focusing on proven solutions, NetApp can offer trustworthy products at an affordable price.

Security

The manufacturer knows the threats that organizations face, which is why most devices are equipped with at least basic protection systems.

NetApp AFF C-Series

Their small size makes the NetApp C series arrays very mobile, and if necessary, they can be easily mounted in a rack. Much more efficient than standard drives, they are the golden mean between speed and capacity.

The most important benefits

Quick return on investment by reducing energy costs by up to 85%
Simplified scaling
A step towards lowering your carbon footprint
Built-in protection
Compact dimensions

NetApp AFF C-Series arrays are perfect for organizations that need something more than standard memory, but at the same time do not want to invest a fortune in infrastructure or external cloud solutions. However, if such a cloud already exists, thanks to its compatibility, you can easily transfer data to a virtual environment.

An increasingly important feature from the organization’s point of view is low energy consumption. Compared to Hybrid Flash devices, maintenance costs, i.e. cooling and power supply, are reduced by up to 85%.

People who value security will find built-in protection against ransomware and application verification.
