Description
Composable NVMe-over-Fabrics Storage for High-Performance Data Centers
The WD OpenFlex F3200 Series Fabric Device (Model: 1EX2516) is engineered for the next generation of IT infrastructure—offering composable, scalable, and high-performance NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMe-oF™) storage. As a modular building block within Western Digital’s OpenFlex architecture, it enables disaggregated storage and compute, ensuring optimal utilization and ultra-low latency across the data center.
Harnessing the power of NVMe-oF, the OpenFlex F3200 delivers the direct-attached performance of NVMe with the flexibility and efficiency of shared storage. It supports access to multiple storage tiers—including flash, disk, and emerging technologies—via a common fabric, simplifying architecture and accelerating time-to-value.
Whether for high-performance computing, AI, big data analytics, or virtualized environments, the F3200 enables fast, fluid infrastructure that scales with your workload.
Key Benefits:
-
High-speed, low-latency NVMe-oF architecture
-
Dynamic resource provisioning and orchestration compatibility
-
Centralized, shared storage pool for diverse workloads
-
Reduced infrastructure overhead and stranded resources
-
Optimized for modern software-defined data centers
