NetApp E-Series
NetApp E-Series systems are flexible, highly reliable hybrid flash arrays designed for organizations that need simple, fast, and cost-effective block storage. Powered by the SANtricity operating system, E-Series delivers high-capacity and consistent performance with straightforward management, making it ideal for environments where ease of use, density and predictable throughput matter most. E-Series systems are commonly used for video surveillance, backup and recovery, virtualization, HPC workloads, and general-purpose block storage in departmental or distributed environments.
TrueNAS
TrueNAS, the world's most deployed storage software, is a universal data platform that allows users to easily adopt a modern, open source approach to store and protect their growing data. TrueNAS harnesses the power of the legendary ZFS file system to provide unified storage (File, Block Object, and Apps) with the reliability and performance demanded by virtualization, backup, and many other data-heavy workloads. The TrueNAS CORE edition (formerly FreeNAS) is based on FreeBSD for unified scale-up storage.
