Hi folks,

 

I was told by someone on my account team that SSD isn't "allowed" on Ontap SELECT. That said, I found in TR 4517, page 9, (http://www.netapp.com/us/media/tr-4517.pdf) that in fact we can use SSDs. Anyone here know the whole story?

 

·         If I attach a bunch of SSDs to a RAID card and present them to an Ontap SELECT VM, can I use them?

·         Will it try to use them like spindles, without any of the new 9.0 flash optimizations?

 

Thanks!
