Product overview
This is the NetApp 24-Bay 2.5in SAS disk shelf, order code DS2246. An expansion shelf has to be supported by the head unit's firmware, not merely cabled to it. This chassis takes 24 drives. Tell us the controller and we will confirm the shelf is on its supported list.
Tell us the deadline you are working to and we will say whether it is achievable before you commit to it internally.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
DS2246 is what is quoted and DS2246 is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Carriers counted with the drives
Enclosure, carriers and disks are quoted as one line so the shelf can actually be populated on arrival.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is DS2246 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in NetApp packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will DS2246 work in my server?
Send us the server model or service tag and we will confirm before you order. Part numbers alone do not always settle it: firmware revision and platform generation matter, and this is the check that prevents a return.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.
