What makes NetApp's Dynamic Disk Pools a reliable technology in data protection and in failed drive reconstruction and restoration?
Reliability of NetApp’s Dynamic Disk Pools
Hello Megan,
The Dynamic disk pools is designed for capacity-intensive environments that demand continuous high performance. In High performance computing and other big-data environments, success depends on the speed which data is acquired, processed and distributed. Netapp Dynamic disk pools (DDP) is ideally-suitedfor sites with vast amounts of data requiring continuous high performance. Its next generation architecture will reduce the impacts of driver failure, which is a great help for its users.
Dynamic disk pools distributes data, parity information and space capacity across pool drives. DDP is able to utilize every drive in the pool for the intensive process of rebuilding a failed drive. This dynamic rebuild technology is the key to the exceptional performance under the failure and quick return to the optimal condition. And its disk pool sizing provides optimal utilization easy. All this advantages makes NetApp's Dynamic disk pools a unique software in its field of use.
Hope you get the answer. Have a nice day

The NetApp SANtricity Dynamic Disk Pools provides a high performance and flexible data storage which is best for capacity-intensive locations. It delivers and safeguards data across a group of drives and reconstructs up to 8 times faster than conventional RAID. The dynamic rebuild technology decreases the performance impact during a drive failure and the patent-pending algorithm makes sure that circulated data are protected.
The combination of NetApp E-Series storage and NetApp SANtricity Dynamic Disk Pools or DDP is best for HPC or High-Performance Computing and other large-data storage locations. The NetApp SANtricity Dynamic Disk Pools offers a next-generation architecture that reduces the impact of a drive failure and restoring the system to its best possible state doing it eight times faster than conventional RAID.
