Designed for High Performance
Western Digital’s OpenFlex Data24 NVMe-oF Storage Platform extends the high performance of NVMe flash to shared storage. It provides low-latency sharing of NVMe SSDs over a high-performance Ethernet fabric to deliver similar performance to locally attached NVMe SSDs. Industry-leading connectivity, using Western Digital RapidFlex network adapters, allows up to 12 hosts to be attached without a switch.
The platform can also be specified with just two RapidFlex adapters for simpler environments and as a direct replacement for SAS external storage.
The OpenFlex Data24 NVMe-oF Storage Platform can also be used as a disaggregated storage resource in an open composable infrastructure environment. OpenFlex Data24 is built to deliver high availability and enterprise-class reliability. The entire enclosure, including SSDs, is backed with a 5-year limited warranty.
