Your enterprise relies on core applications that are critical to business success. To achieve business goals, you need consistent application performance and continuous availability. To deliver value and reduce complexity, you must have proven storage systems that work with your application software. Because your operations depend on these applications, they must have greater than 99.999% availability. To reach this goal you need proven storage purpose-built for hybrid storage environments.
Your enterprise must have storage that can meet your performance and capacity demands without sacrificing simplicity and efficiency. That is why the E5600 was designed with NetApp SANtricity OS adaptive caching algorithms, which address a large range of application workloads. Those workloads range from high-IOPS or bandwidth-intensive streaming applications to a mixture of workloads delivering highperformance storage consolidation.
With fully redundant I/O paths, advanced data protection features, and extensive diagnostic capabilities, the E5600 storage systems enable you to achieve greater than 99.999% availability and provide data integrity and security.
Nearing one million systems shipped, E-Series technology is found in enterprise SAN application environments that support retail points of sale, web servers, billing systems, databases, and data warehouses. E-Series systems also are found in collaboration environments, media applications, sporting events, surveillance, research, backup, and simulations of all kinds. These systems range from small systems in which E-Series is the only storage in a mixed-workload environment to the world’s largest storage systems in database, data warehouse, parallel file systems, and everything in between. It is almost impossible to get through your day without touching E-Series technology.
Optimize your enterprise applications. The E5600 storage system delivers flagship storage performance.
Meet your demanding performance and capacity requirements without sacrificing simplicity and efficiency. The NetApp E5600 hybrid storage system supports high-performance mixed workloads, databases, file systems, data analytics and bandwidth-intensive streaming applications, backup, and archive—all with equal ease.
Achieve the highest levels of availability, integrity, and security; the E5600 system delivers fully redundant I/O paths, advanced protection features, and extensive diagnostic capabilities.
Combine these E5600 high-availability features with SANtricity® patent-pending Dynamic Disk Pools (DDP) and thin-provisioning technology, and the result is a simple-to-deploy, simple-to-manage data storage solution.
E5600 highlights include:
- Balanced performance designed to support any workload
- SANtricity Remote Mirroring for proven data replication and disaster recovery
- Modular flexibility through multiple form factors and drive technology options
- Flexible host and network interface options
- Maximum storage density

Key Benefits
- Performance Efficiency
Accelerate performance, boost IOPS, and increase density with a hybrid system perfectly suited for modern enterprise applications. - Modular Flexibility
Customize configurations to optimize performance and capacity requirements with three distinct disk system shelves, multiple drive types, and a complete selection of SAN network interfaces. - SANtricity Features
Use innovative Dynamic Disk Pools (DDPs) to simplify storage and data management, protection, and utilization and to eliminate the complexity of configuring RAID groups and hot spares. -
Features:
Dynamic Disk Pools
A key feature of DDPs is the ability to dynamically rebalance data across all the drives in the pool when drives are added or removed. Unlike the rigid configuration of a traditional RAID volume group, which has a fixed number of drives, DDPs can flexibly accommodate anywhere from 11 to 384 drives, the maximum supported by the E5600 system. DDPs dynamically rebalance across the remaining (or additional) drives more quickly than traditional RAID. Doing so reduces exposure windows from days to minutes.
Dynamic Disk Pools eliminate the complexities of RAID management. With DDPs, there are no idle spares to manage and you do not need to reconfigure RAID when expanding. DDPs also significantly reduce the impact on performance following failure of one or more drives when compared to traditional RAID.
Thin Provisioning: Improve Storage Efficiency by Up to 33%
Thin provisioning eliminates overprovisioning of storage by automatically allocating storage internally. This feature provisions only what is used while reporting full allocations to hosts. This benefit enables you to significantly lower near-term storage costs and defer storage purchases. SANtricity also enables you to lower the total cost of ownership by reducing initial acquisition capacity and improving utilization.
With thin provisioning you can:
- Eliminate having to guess how much storage an application needs.
- Put an end to purchasing storage based on inflated usage estimates.
- Eliminate error-prone, emergency out-of-space activities.
- Improve storage utilization rates by up to 33%.
- Easily create volumes with one-time single-click management.
- Automatically grow to take care of usage expansion up to the maximum allocated capacity.
Balanced Performance
The E5600 storage system continues the NetApp E-Series’ longstanding heritage of balanced performance designed to support any workload. High-performance file systems and data-intensive bandwidth applications benefit from the E5600’s capability to sustain high read and write throughput. Databasedriven transactional applications benefit from the system’s high IOPS and low latency. Regardless of the application workload, the E5600 is designed to support maximum performance efficiency.
SANtricity Synchronous and Asynchronous Mirroring: Proven Data Replication and Disaster Recovery Protection
With NetApp SANtricity remote mirroring, customers now have a proven and an efficient disaster recovery method for maintaining access to business-critical data in site outages. Available for both FC and IP networks, SANtricity remote mirroring provides highly available data storage across a campus, across the state, or around the world. This mirroring simplifies managing data replication to meet the application service levels of both virtual and traditional environments.
Modular Flexibility
The E5600 offers multiple form factors and drive technology options to best meet your requirements. The ultradense 60-drive system shelf supports up to 480TB in just 4U and is perfect for environments with vast amounts of data and limited floor space. Its 24-system shelf combines low power consumption and exceptional performance density with its cost-effective 2.5” drives. The 12-drive shelf is a great fit for cost-conscious organizations that need to deploy both performance and capacity. All three shelves support E5600 controllers or they can be used for expansion, enabling optimized configurations that best meet performance, capacity, and cost requirements.
Flexible Interface Options
The E5600 supports a complete set of host or network interfaces designed for either direct server attach or network environments. With multiple ports per interface, the rich connectivity provides ample options and bandwidth for high throughput. The interfaces include quad-lane SAS, iSCSI, FC, and InfiniBand to connect with and protect investments in storage networking. The InfiniBand host interface supports either SRP or iSER protocols for low-latency connectivity. The E5600 also supports dual FC ports and dual iSCSI ports in a single host interface card for multiprotocol connectivity and mirroring.
Maximum Storage Density
Today’s storage must keep up with continuous growth and meet the most demanding capacity requirements. The E5600 is purpose-built for capacity-intensive environments that require optimal space utilization and reduced power and cooling requirements. The system’s ultradense 60-drive 4U disk shelf provides industry-leading performance and space efficiency that reduce rack space by up to 60%. Its high-efficiency power supplies and intelligent design can lower power use by up to 40% and cooling requirements by up to 39%.
High Reliability: No Scheduled Downtime
The E5600 storage system delivers high-speed, continuous data access. With over 20 years of storage development behind it, the E5600 is based on a field-proven architecture that provides high reliability and greater than 99.999% availability with appropriate configurations and service plans. As part of the E-Series family, the E5600 is covered by the NetApp AutoSupport system for proactive maintenance.
The E5600 simplifies management, maintains organizational productivity, and keeps data accessible through redundant components, automated path failover, online administration (including online SANtricity OS and drive firmware updates), active drive recovery mechanisms, and user-directed drive data evacuation. The system’s advanced protection features and extensive diagnostic capabilities deliver high levels of data integrity, including Data Assurance (T10 PI), to protect against silent data corruption.
Intuitive Management
NetApp SANtricity Storage Manager software offers extensive configuration flexibility, which allows optimal performance tuning and complete control over data placement. With its dynamic capabilities, SANtricity software supports on-the-fly expansion, reconfigurations, and maintenance without interrupting storage system I/O.
Application Integration
NetApp E-Series products are ideal for today’s standard application environments, such as VMware and Microsoft Exchange, and databases, such as Oracle databases and Microsoft SQL Server. It is also ideal for the growing open-source big data applications such as NoSQL databases, including Couchbase, Mongo DB, Hadoop, and Splunk, and softwaredefined data center initiatives such as OpenStack and Ceph. The system integrates with any environment with its configurable options. The E-Series also meets the reliability and sustained performance demands of transactional applications in which sustaining performance is critical.
The NetApp SANtricity Plug-Ins for Microsoft, Oracle, VMware, Splunk, and Nagios environments provide a consolidated view of the NetApp E-Series systems. This view enables users to monitor and manage their NetApp E-Series storage from the application. Having such integration reduces the total cost of ownership by eliminating the need to manually compile critical information from several different tools. This benefit streamlines the correlation of configuration and performance problems across the entire set of IT components.
Disk Encryption (Licensed)
SANtricity Full Disk Encryption* (FDE) combines local key management with drive-level encryption for comprehensive security for data at rest that doesn’t sacrifice performance or ease of use. Because all drives eventually leave the data center through redeployment, retirement, or service, you can rest assured that your sensitive data is not leaving with them. SANtricity also supports FIPS-certified hard drives for securitysensitive customers.
SSD Cache
The SSD Cache feature provides intelligent caching capability for active high-reuse data and caches that data on higherperformance, lower-latency SSDs. This caching approach works automatically in real time. Users do not need to set up complicated policies to define the trigger for data movement between tiers—you can simply set it and forget it. SSD Cache accelerates data access through the caching use of SSDs in the drive shelves and is expandable up to 5TB per storage system.
