This is a GREAT price for this type of storage unit, especially considering it's full of Enterprise hard drives.

CAUTION: NetApp will require you purchase an expensive license from them to get the full 144TB storage usage. We rad many NetApp servers at the last datacenter I worked at, and selling them was always difficult because NetApp support is really difficult about requests to transfer licenses (atleast they were for us).

Their licensing is physically built into their hardware, so many functions are blocked without the required licenses. We also discovered that blowing up a disk partition kills the license, as we had to wipe the drives first for security reasons before selling the replaced units.

Here's just one of thousands of forum posts from NetApps own website, showing one example of this problem:
