In general, the hardware requirement is a platform that has processors that are AES-NI capable to do the encryption offloading to offset performance. All new platforms will have that, for the most part.

Hi Stephen,

a complete list of supported platforms for NVE is available here:

Hello

I'm trying to find an official list of which hardware supports the new 9.1 Netapp Volume Encryption (NVE) feature.  I've checked HWU and can't see anything that shows NVE compatibility.  I've also tried IMT but I've never been able to get along with that tool.

Specifically, I'm trying to find out if the FAS2500 series or new FAS2650 platforms support this feature.

I've listened to TechOnTap podcast #59 in which the speakers discuss NVE but I'm now looking for the "official" documentation on hardware support.

Any pointers to the right docs would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards

Steve
