Our S family makes NetApp affordable and lets storage generalists easily adopt new technologies. Midsize enterprises and remote office/branch offices can control their data without adding new staff.

Simple solutions centered on the NetApp® S family reduce costs and make your business more competitive. The S family lets you:

• Cut out dedicated storage devices to lower licensing and management costs
• Implement off-site disaster recovery
• Build a SAN and move to server virtualization
• Slash backup and restore windows to seconds

Larger firms are centralizing remote site data and replicating to central locations, achieving reliable backups regardless of location or IT resources:

• Standardize on a single platform and gain control over localized growth
• Consolidate devices in distributed sites
• Prepare for desktop and server virtualization

Larger firms use the S550 to leverage NetApp technologies from the edge to the core.
