The rear of the Array Module contains two controllers. The rear of each Expansion Module contains two I/O modules.
These components are the same for all DXi9000 Series systems. See details below:
DXi9000 Series QUICK START
Using variable-length deduplication, DXi9000 Series systems provide scalable backup storage and disaster recovery
protection across sites. They can also replicate the data as part of disaster recovery. The DXi9000 Series includes the
DXi9000 and DXi9100. The DXi9000 is available in two storage options: Standard Density (SD) and High Density (HD).
The DXi9100 is available with HD storage. For installation instructions, including pre-installation requirements, log in to
